The 30-Day Startup Loan
Learn how to start a business, who the best three startup lenders are, tailor a business plan and financials for a start-up friendly lender, and how to get funded in just 4 weeks!
Why Should I Take The Program?
If you are planning to start a business and need funding, you must create a strategy for how you will operate the business and find a startup-friendly lender. Lenders will require you to provide standard documents such as a business plan, financial projections, and loan application documents. If you are not familiar with creating these, it can feel overwhelming. You may be unsure about the proper layout or how to tailor them to the lender.
In The 30-Day Startup course, we bring over 20 years of experience to show you how to quickly prepare a compelling business plan, clear financial projections, and a well-organized loan application package that highlights your expertise, skills, and abilities to manage the business and pay back the loan.
