@wbburney: A lot of new business owners think getting funding starts with filling out an application. It doesn't. Your application is only one piece of the picture. Before you start sending applications everywhere, take a look at how your business is actually set up. Is your information consistent? Do you have a separate business bank account? Are your finances organized? Can someone clearly understand what your business does? Are you building business credit? And most importantly, are you applying for funding that actually fits your current profile? You don't need to make your business look bigger than it is. You need to make sure the foundation is clean before you start asking lenders for money. Comment “Fund” if you want to learn how to get access to $250k+ in business funding step by step.
