SCORE: Can I Get That Business Loan?

Please register for this event on the SCORE website: Can I Get That Business-How to Improve Your Chances

Understanding how things look from the lender’s point of view can help prepare a small business for a successful effort to raise debt capital, whether from a community lending source like CEDF or from a bank or credit union. Lack of knowledge of certain principles can cause loan applicants to waste time, effort and emotions. With a grasp of these concepts, small business owners can focus on what’s truly important to move toward to secure lending support.

What you will learn:

• Am I Seeking the Right Kind of Capital?

• Can I Pay the Loan Back Comfortably?

• Is there a Plan B if my Business Stumbles?

• Does the Lender Believe My Business Plan?

• Does the Lender Believe I Can Succeed?
