SUMMARY:Get Loan Ready!
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER HERE: https://us06web.zoom.us/meeting/register/F3i_gJKjRfGiBaGWaXUGmA#/registration \nWhether you’re launching a new venture\, growing an existing business\, or looking to acquire one\, securing the right financing starts long before you walk into a lender’s office. This hands-on training will walk you through exactly what it takes to get loan-ready — from building your financial profile to understanding what lenders actually want to see. \nWe’ll cover loan options tailored to where you are in your business journey: pre-venture entrepreneurs who are still in the planning stage\, established businesses with revenue looking to scale\, and buyers pursuing business acquisition financing. \nYou’ll leave knowing which loan programs fit your situation and what steps to take right now to strengthen your application. \nWe’ll also pull back the curtain on predatory and high-risk lending products that target small business owners — so you can spot the red flags\, avoid costly mistakes\, and protect what you’ve built. You’ll walk away knowing: \n\nWhat loan programs are available and which ones match your stage\nHow lenders evaluate your readiness (credit\, cash flow\, collateral\, and more)\nWhat to do — and what to avoid — before you apply\nWhich loan products to steer clear of and why\nand MORE!
