Unlocking Business Growth: Why Going Solo on Loans Might Cost You, and How We Make it Easy!

November 29, 20232 min read

Thinking about getting a business loan? Sure, you can try calling different banks and do it yourself, but here’s the thing – handling your company’s money matters isn’t a DIY project. While it might feel like you’re saving money, taking on the financing process yourself could end up costing you more. Instead of focusing on your business, you might find yourself caught up in loan details. Take a moment to calculate your hourly wage. Is it worth spending that valuable time proving you can handle it yourself, or would your time be better spent growing your business? The latter is usually a safer bet.


Want a smoother experience and peace of mind?

Here’s a little secret – there’s an “ART” to requesting a business loan. Unless you’re a seasoned pro, you won’t know if you’ve landed the right loan with the right lender. That’s where hiring an experienced advisor comes in handy. Without one, you risk setting up your business with the wrong kind of financial support.

The devil's in the details:

We get tons of Capital Inquiry forms every week, and you wouldn’t believe how often they’re incomplete, misspelled, or just plain confusing. Accuracy matters. Submitting unclear information puts you at risk of the lender passing on your request or, worse, approving you at a higher cost because they think you’re not financially savvy.

Check before you submit personal info:

Before you fill out any online forms, talk to the capital provider first. It might sound basic, but there are plenty of fake companies online. You don’t want your personal or business info scattered all over the internet. Know who you’re dealing with. We won’t ask for your info until we’ve had a chat to make sure everyone is legit.
