    New Shirt Sponsor

    Been looking online at the finances of the new shirt sponsor. I do hope the club have done their due diligence on the company and the Directors.

    The company we’ve been in partnership for the last year?

    What have your investigations uncovered?

    I’d be pretty certain they had.

    Didn't know that, just that bevvy.com
    didn't seem to have a lot of cash on the face of it. Could be using cash from another company Test card to get bevvy.com out there. There also maybe investors in the background. Hope it all works out.

    I think a lot of startups won’t have many assets or capital, or turnover come to think of it. Hey, as long as they pay the bills, they can stay on our strips.

    Of course they will have, just have to look at Sporte Mon Go and Terry Healy Group to see.

    If they’ve paid the cash for this season up front does it really matter?
    Someone posted on another thread they’d received £1.5M in startup capital so they do have money.

    cinch was a start up when it signed all those sponsorship deals. Made a big splash in the market from nowhere.

    I wish our new sponsors all the best. I don’t pretend to understand their business model, but then that’s how entrepreneurs make money: spotting an opportunity that few others can see.

    I saw the website that was based on. It doesn't tally with their latest accounts.

    One of the issues I have is that some of these sponsors try to bring Hibs fans in with special deals aimed at Hibees. Should they let the fans down, thinking specifically towards insurance and similar ones then that would be pretty poor.

    I did live the video the bevvy guy did and the qr code thing is interesting.
