Small Business Financing
An
established business owner has many options when it comes to locating
financing for their small business. Here is a brief list of some of the
small business financing options readily available on the internet.
Secured Business Loans require collateral such as
real estate, business equipment, and/or accounts receivables.
Unsecured Business Loans require no collateral.
These types of loans are for borrowers with good to excellent credit.
Approval for this type of loan is based on the credit history of the
business owners.
A Business Line of Credit is a revolving account
that can be used to access working capital up to a specific credit limit.
Business credit cards are a form of business line of credit.
Business Startup Loans are used by small
business owners to develop an idea, buy an existing business or franchise,
or bring your particular product(s)/service(s) to the marketplace. A business
startup loan can be in the form of a secured loan, unsecured business loan,
or business line of credit.
Working capital business loans are for
already existing businesses. Working capital can be used to buy equipment,
inventory, or advertising, meet payroll, cover minor repairs and
maintenance, or any other business need.
The Small Business Administration (SBA) was created by U.S.
Congress in 1953 to aid and assist the development of small businesses. SBA
administers three separate, but equally important loan programs. SBA sets
the guidelines for the loans while SBA's partners (Lenders, Community
Development Organizations, and Microlending Institutions) make the loans to
small businesses.
Merchant Cash Advance providers work in conjunction
with merchant account providers. Retail businesses that accept Visa & Mastercard as a form of payment can sell a portion of their future credit
card sales for a lump sum of immediate cash. The business owner receives a
lump sum of cash from the cash advance provider. The merchant account
provider will then deduct a small percentage of each future credit card
transaction until the advance is made whole.
Invoice Factoring is the
process in which a business converts unpaid invoices or accounts receivable
into immediate cash by selling them to a third party finance company known
as a Factor. Instead of waiting 30, 60, or 90 days for your customers to
pay, you send a copy of the invoices to the factoring company. The factoring
company will then advance your business up to 95% of the face amount of the
invoices. Then factoring company takes the responsibility for collecting
payment from your customers.
Commercial Mortgage loans are used to buy,
renovate, or refinance commercial buildings.
When a small business owner needs machinery, heavy equipment, or motor vehicles to operate their business, equipment leasing or equipment financing companies offer an alternative to paying cash. In most cases you can lease or finance new or used equipment. If you own your business equipment, you can sell it to an equipment leasing company and lease it back to improve your cash flow. |
