The simple answer: literally anything!
Are you looking to grow your business?
Do you ever have unexpected costs arise?
Does your business ever need to place large orders or make expensive purchases?
Are you ever stuck waiting on large payments to come through?
Are you looking to expand cash flow?
If you answered "yes" to any of these questions, you'll need working capital (cash)...but how do you get it?
Working capital is the cash a business has on hand at any given time. It's used for general day-to-day operational costs like rent, utilities, marketing, payroll, supplies, etc.
Day-to-day operation and more importantly, growth, are difficult when a business is short on working capital. There are a few different options for increasing capital via financing: SBA or bank loans, lines of credit, or the method we're going to focus on today: the Working Capital Loan.
When you take out a Working Capital Loan, funds are deposited (as cash) directly into your bank account. Once there, the money is yours to use however you see fit - the funds are completely unrestricted. We recommend you use it for business expenses, but it's truly up to you! You could take a trip to go run with the bulls or swim with sharks if that floats your boat, we won't judge. (On second thought, scratch that - we want you to survive long enough to pay us back. 😅)
Speaking of payments...within a month or so of receiving the funds, you'll begin making payments back to your lender. (Fun Fact: we have monthly, weekly, or even daily payment options available - you choose whichever best fits your budget!)
With a line of credit, you withdraw the funds as needed, and make a payment (with interest) each month. You can take smaller chunks of money out at different times, and you'll be charged interest on whatever you withdraw. Interest rates on a line of credit are usually variable, meaning they'll change with the federal funds rate. This makes it difficult (if not impossible) to predict what the money you borrow will actually end up costing you.
In contrast, with a Working Capital Loan, the full amount of funds is deposited directly into your account, and you'll pay back a set amount each month. The interest rate is fixed, meaning it won't rise over the course of your term (also making this type of loan easy to budget for!).
Speed, ease, and savings!

We've been helping small businesses get the equipment they need to grow for over 20 years. During that time, we've realized that our customers don't just need new equipment to grow...they might need to finance a small remodel, increase marketing efforts, or buy supplies, etc. An equipment lease obviously wouldn't work on these types of expenses, so we began offering our Working Capital Loan to help bridge the gap to growth and address the need we were seeing.
Our goal is simple: help your business grow and succeed...however we can.
