Woman:This morning, Martin Baker is in our studioto tell us how he started his company, CoffeeExpress. Martin, good morning.

　　Man: Good morning.

　　Woman: First of all, Martin, what made you decideto start your own business?

　　Man: Well, previously I worked as a consultant inthe retail sector, helping clients to face difficultchallenges, or helping with their ambitions to make alot of money, and I realised that what reallyinterested me was not giving advice to other company owners, but actually having one myself.

　　Woman:So where did you get the initial funding for Coffee Express?

　　Man: I thought I wouldn't be able to get a bank loan, so I contacted a group called 'BusinessAngels' which invests in small businesses, and they provided the capital. Later I found out thatI did have a colleague with a substantial amount of money to invest who was very interestedin becoming a business partner; but by then it was too late.

　　Woman: I see. And what sort of company is Coffee Express?
