3 reasons why business credit is for you
Whether you’re an entrepreneur or a resourceful investor, financing for your business or investment needs can be elusive.
There is no shortage of methods that can be used for business financing:
- personal savings
- retirement savings
- personal credit cards
- personal property lines of credit
- private money or partners
- business / personal loans
However, these methods may be limited in number and / or require demanding qualifications. Worse still, some methods require the use of YOUR money.
Personal capital should be the last resort of any entrepreneur or investor.
Here’s a smarter option: commercial credit with personal guarantee. This is the path of least resistance.
3 reasons why you should choose commercial credit with personal guarantee:
1. Minimum qualifications
- Qualifying with a personal guarantee is easy. There are only 2 requirements: good personal credit and healthy projected income. Lenders want to know how well an applicant has managed their personal funds and if the applicant can project substantial earnings from their business products or services.
2. Fast transfer of funds
- Business credit refers to obtaining credit cards under your business entity. Generally, personal guarantee financing is fast and smooth. There are no long waits or strenuous application processes. Remember how quickly loan decisions were made after applying for personal credit cards? Business credit decisions work the same way. Some decisions are instantaneous, while others take a little over a week.
3. NO files attached to your personal credit file
- As a business owner / investor, it is good practice to keep your personal credit clean. A clean credit profile characterizes you as an attractive business partner and an ideal loan candidate. The benefits of great credit are endless; Fortunately, business credit allows you to maintain great personal credit while giving you access to the capital you need. Although you are personally guaranteeing the funds, business credit does not appear on your personal credit file unless you default. Making the required minimum payments is not negotiable.
The requirements for commercial credit with personal guarantee are minimal; however, the simple application does not guarantee maximum funding. I suggest consulting an expert or a professional service. They should be able to help you qualify and secure maximum funding.
Always evaluate the potential expenses that accompany your selected financing option before making decisions.
Raising capital does not have to be stressful or time consuming.
Don’t let onerous loans hold you back.
