When two of BBC2’s Dragons, Theo Paphitis and Deborah Meaden, agreed a couple of weeks ago to invest £120,000 in solar panel installer Ploughcroft Solar, they recognised the huge potential of this sector. Ploughcroft owner Chris Hopkins said the Dragons’ £120,000 would be helpful, but not crucial, as he’s expecting his business to make £600,000 profit this year. What he really wanted from them, he said, was help with business strategy for growth and – using a phrase repeated several times by Hopkins and the Dragons – “PR and marketing.”
