31. Small Business Credit- On your Mind Today- How do I Get Started?
Struggling to get started? The following questions might help point you
in the right direction. Do you need:
• Capital to cover the cost of retaining employees? Then the Paycheck
Protection Program might be right for you.
• A quick infusion of a smaller amount of cash to cover you right now?
You might want to look into an Emergency Economic Injury Grant.
• To ease your fears about keeping up with payments on your current or
potential SBA loan? The Small Business Debt Relief Program could help.
• Just some quality, free counseling to help you navigate this uncertain
economic time? The resource partners might be your best bet. WBC,
Score and Many others..
32. PPP loan and Other existing Loans
How does the PPP loan coordinate with SBA’s
existing loans?
Answer: Borrowers may apply for PPP loans and
other SBA financial assistance, including Economic
Injury Disaster Loans (EIDLs), 7(a) loans, 504 loans,
and microloans, and also receive investment capital
from Small Business Investment Corporations
(SBICs). However, you cannot use your PPP loan for
the same purpose as your other SBA loan(s). For
example, if you use your PPP to cover payroll for the
8-week covered period, you cannot use a different
SBA loan product for payroll for those same costs in
that period, although you could use it for payroll not
during that period or for different workers.
33. Types of Other Bank Financing Options
Term Loans
Term loans are often used when a
business needs to purchase equipment
or capital goods. Interest rates normally
remain fixed for the life of the loan, and
the length of the loan often depends on
the loan’s purpose.
Lines of Credit (LOC)
Lines of credit (LOC) are often used to
cover short-term working capital needs.
Unlike a term loan, which provides a
lump sum up front, a line of credit allows
businesses to withdraw funds as needed.
Credit Cards
For many businesses, credit cards are
an attractive form of short-term
financing. They can be particularly
convenient for making frequent
transactions or short-term purchases,
such as office supplies and business
travel. If paid off within a month, no
interest is charged.
SBA Loans
The U.S. Small Business Administration, or SBA, offers programs to help businesses that may not meet
conventional lending requirements. Though the SBA provides the financing, the loans are offered and
administered through banks. Interest rates normally are fixed for the life of the loan (Term loan rates are
fixed, revolving product is variable).
34. Creditworthiness for lenders is how likely a person or business will be able to pay back
borrowed money. – This is your story.
The assessments used are based on some of the following factors such as:
• Have you paid past financial obligations in full and on time?
• Has your spending been prudent and within your personal budget?
• Do your habits over time reflect financial responsibility?
• Have you or your business had the income and stability to support past and future debts?
• What will your business look like in the future. Know how to articulate it and why.
• Has your business been in existence and generating revenue for a few years? How have
you performed before Covid 19? How will your perform going forward?
• Do you have a history of follow through, such as staying at a job and building your
expertise? Your business plan should define this.
• The better your creditworthiness, the more likely it is that a financial institution will lend to
you money. The story is important.
PPP and Other SBA Loans are Great But How Does My Bank Fit it
and how do I qualify with them?
