Building Business Credit
• And the lack of business credit can cause the
business to suffer, not thrive
• 90% of the business population does not have
established business credit
• Many apply and get denied
• Many try to apply and include their SSN on the

• Most apply for credit in the wrong order and get
denied and this makes matters worse

• You are trying to obtain a bunch of credit with
no liability with the intention of never paying it

• You are trying to build and sell bogus
“shelf” companies that people
don’t need
9. Let me take a moment and tell you
why I can help
10. My Story
• If you don’t think you can obtain business
credit, I know how you feel
• I owned several companies and was never
able to build any business credit or obtain any
financing and struggled to get started
and just stay afloat
• A buddy introduced me to a business credit
building system that changed my life
17. Business Credit
• Business Credit is credit that is obtained in a
Business Name
• With business credit the Business builds its
own credit profile and credit score
• With an established credit profile and score,
the business will then qualify for credit
18. Business Credit
• This credit is in the business name and based
on the business’s ability to pay, not the
business owners
• Since the business qualifies for the credit, in
some cases there is no personal credit check
required from the business owner
19. Business Credit
• The business can use its credit to qualify for
revolving store credit cards like Staples,
Lowes, Sam’s Club, Costco, BP, Wal-Mart,
even MasterCard, Visa, and AMEX
• The business can also qualify for credit lines
and loans
20. Business Credit Benefits
• A credit profile can be built for a business that
is completely separate from the business
owner’s personal credit profile
• This gives business owners DOUBLE the
borrowing power as they have both Personal
and Business credit profiles built
21. Business Credit Benefits
• Business credit scores are based only on
whether the business pays its bills on time
• A business owner can obtain credit much
faster using their business credit profile versus
their personal credit profile.
22. Business Credit Benefits
• Approval limits are much higher on business
accounts versus personal accounts
• Per SBA, credit limits on business cards are
usually 10-100 times higher than consumer
credit
23. Business Credit Benefits
• When done correctly
Business Credit can be built
without a personal credit
check
• Business credit can quickly
be obtained regardless of
personal credit quality
24. Business Credit Benefits
• Most business credit can be obtained without
the owner taking on personal liability, or a
personal guarantee
• This means in case of default, the business
owner’s personal assets can’t be pursued
25. Business Credit Benefits
• When a business owner applies for financing,
their business credit IS reviewed
• Not having business credit established will get
an owner DECLINED for financing
• There are no regulations that require the
lenders notify the business owner for their
reason for denial, so most never know
26. 4 Easy Steps to Quickly
Building Business Credit
27. IMPORTANT NOTE…
This is where I recommend you
switch to a live walk-through
presentation of the finance suite,
then come back to this power point
on slide 65
28. Business Credit Building
– The business starts with no credit profile
– The business gets approved for new credit that
reports to the business credit reporting agencies
– The business uses the credit and pays the bill
timely
– A positive business credit profile is established
– As the business continues using the credit and
pays bills timely it will qualify for more credit
A business starts building a brand new credit profile
much the same as a consumer does
29. Step 1- Build Business Credibility
• The perception lenders, vendors, and creditors
have of your business is critical to your ability to
build strong business credit.
• Before applying for business credit a business
must insure it meets or exceeds
all lender credibility standards
• There are over 20 credibility points that are
necessary for a business to have a strong,
credible foundation
30. Business Name
• It is very important that you use your exact
business legal name
• Your full business name should include any
recorded DBA filing you will be using
• Insure your business name is exactly the same
on your corporation papers, licenses, and
bank statements
31. Corporate Entities
• You can build business credit with almost any
corporate entity type
• If you truly want to separate business credit from
personal credit your business must be a separate
legal entity not a sole proprietor or partnership
• Unless you have a separate business entity
(Corporation or LLC) you might be
"doing business" but you are not
truly "a business“
• You need to be a Corporation or
an LLC in order to separate
personal from business +
32. EIN
• Whether you have employees or
not, your business entity must
have a Federal Tax ID number
(EIN)
• Just like you have a Social Security
Number, your business has an EIN
• Your Tax ID number is used to
open your bank account and to
build your business credit profile
• Take the time to verify that all
agencies, banks, and trade credit
33. Business Address
• Business Address
–Must be a real brick-and-mortar building
–Deliverable physical address
–Cannot be a home address
–Cannot be a PO Box
–Cannot be a UPS address
• Some lenders will not approve and
fund unless this criteria is met
34. Business Address
• Business Address Solutions
– Address Only - Receive mail and packages at your
dedicated business address.
– Virtual Office - Professional business address,
dedicated phone and fax numbers, receptionist
services, and part-time use of fully furnished
offices and meeting rooms.
– True Office - Your own full-time private office with
receptionist services, dedicated phone and fax,
internet, full furnishings, meeting rooms, and
more.
35. 411
• You must have a dedicated business phone
number that is listed with 411 directory
assistance, under the business name
• Lenders, vendors, creditors, and even insurance
providers will verify that your business is listed
with 411
• A toll-free number will give your business
credibility, but you must have a LOCAL business
number for the listing with 411 directory
assistance
36. Phone Number
• Lenders perceive 800 Number or toll-free phone
numbers as a sign of business credibility
• Even if you're a single owner with a home-based
business, a toll-free number provides the
perception that you are an even bigger company
• It's incredibly easy and inexpensive to set-up a
virtual local phone number or a toll free 800
number
37. Phone Number
• A cell or home phone number as
your main business line could get
you "flagged" as an un-established
business that is too high of a risk.
• DON'T give a personal cell phone or
residential phone as the business
phone number
• You can forward a virtual number
to any cell or land-line phone
number
38. Fax Number
• Lenders perceive a credible business as one
with a fax number
• As a business you will need a fax number to
receive important documents, you will also
need it to fax in some of your credit
applications
• You can setup an e-fax that goes directly to
your email
39. Website
• Credit providers will research your company on
the internet
• It is best if they learned everything directly from
your company website.
• Not having a company website will severely hurt
their chances of obtaining business credit
• There are many places online that offer
affordable business websites so you can have an
internet presence that displays an overview of
your company's services and contact
40. Email
• It is important to get a company email address
for your business.
• It's not only professional, but greatly helps
your chances of getting the thumbs up from a
credit provider.
• Setting up a business email address is just too
easy and inexpensive to neglect
41. Email
• Avoid using free email
services like Yahoo and
Hotmail
• There is nothing worse than
credit providers seeing an
email address like
partychic2009@yahoo.com
• The Email address should be
yourcompany.com
• A great example is an email
42. Bank Account
• Your business banking history is vital to your future
success of being able to secure larger business loans
• The date you open your business bank account is the
day that lender's consider your business to have
started
• So if you incorporated your business 10 years ago,
but you just opened the business bank account
yesterday, then your business started yesterday
• The longer your business banking
history, the better your
borrowing potential will be
43. Bank Account
• Having a high account balance is essential in
obtaining an excellent Bank Rating
• Having a good Bank Rating is essential for
approval
• Try to keep a bank balance of $10,000 or
higher for a High 5 Bank Rating
44. Licensing
• One of the most common mistakes when building
credit for your company is non-matching
business addresses on your business licenses
• Even worse is not having the "required" licenses
for your type of business to operate legally
• You will need to contact the State, County, and
City Government offices to see if there are any
required licenses and permits to operate your
type of business
45. Licensing
• State business filings listed correctly
• County license and/or permit filings listed
correctly
• City license and/or permit filings listed
correctly
• IRS filings listed correctly
46. Business Listings
• Take the time to verify that main agencies
(State, IRS, Bank, and 411 national directory)
have your business listed the same way and
with your Exact Legal Name.
• Also take the time to ensure every bill you get
(power bill, phone bill, landlord, etc.) has the
business name listed correctly and comes to
the business address.
47. Step 2- Obtain Business Credit
Reports
• Business Credit reports are offered by
Experian, Dun & Bradstreet, and Equifax
• You will first want to get a copy
of your business credit reports
to see what is being reported
48. Experian
• Visit http://www.smartbusinessreports.com/
for a copy of your Smart Business report
• $49-99 for Smart Business Report
• Find out how many trade lines are reporting,
see if you have a business credit score
assigned, see if you have an active Experian
Business Profile, and check on recent inquries
49. Equifax
• You can purchase a copy of your Equifax Small
Business Credit Report here
http://www.equifax.com/small-business/credit-report/en_sb
• It typically takes more time to create a file with
Equifax Small Business than D&B and Experian
• This is why it's important to apply with the credit
providers who report to Equifax
• $99.95 for a full report
50. Dun & Bradstreet DUNS Number
• Obtaining a Dun and Bradstreet number
(D-U-N-S #) begins the process of building
your business credit profile with them
• Your D-U-N-S # will also play an important
role in enabling your business to borrow
without a personal guarantor.
• http://www.dnb.com/
• $299- 699 per DUNS Number
51. Dun & Bradstreet
• You can also enroll for the
DNBi SelfMonitor to monitor
your credit during the building
process
• A subscription for D&B Self
Monitoring is $39-99 per
month
• Activate your DUNS # and get
your file a D&B Rating
•
52. Step 3- Obtain Vendor Accounts
• A business credit report can be started much
the same as a consumer report commonly is,
with small credit cards
• The business can be approved for small
credit cards to help them build an initial
credit profile
• These types of initial cards in the
business world are commonly
referred to as “vendor credit”
53. Vendor Accounts
• A vendor line of credit is when a company
(vendor) extends a line of credit to your business
on "Net 15, 30, 60 or 90" day terms.
• This means that you can purchase their products
or services up to a maximum dollar amount and
you have 15, 30, 60 or 90 days to pay the bill in
full.
• So if you're set-up on Net 30 terms and were to
purchase $300 worth of goods today, then that
$300 is due within the next 30 days.
54. Vendor Accounts
• You can get products and
services for your business needs
and defer the payment on those
for 30 days, thereby easing cash
flow
• And some vendors will approve
your company for Net 30
payment terms upon verification
of as little as an EIN number
and 411 listing
55. Vendor Accounts
• Always apply first without using
your SSN.
• Some vendors will request it and
some will even tell you on the phone they
need to have it, but submit first without it.
• When your first Net 30 account reports your
"tradeline" to Dun & Bradstreet, the DUNS
system will automatically activate your file if it
isn't already. This is also true for Experian and
Equifax.
56. Vendor Accounts
• You need to have a total of at least five (5) Net
30 day pay accounts reporting.
• Some vendors require an initial prepaid order
before they can approve your business for
terms.
• Your vendors do not necessarily have to serve
100% of your business needs.
57. Vendor Accounts
• Pay your Net 30 vendor accounts
in-full and on-time
• You must be patient and allow time
for the vendors' reporting cycles to
get into the reporting systems
• It typically takes 3 cycles of "Net"
accounts reporting to build credit
scores
58. Vendor Accounts
• Most Merchants and major retailers do offer
business credit, they just don’t advertise it
• There is no benefit to the merchant to
promote credit with no personal liability if the
business owner is willing to take on that
liability
• So they don’t promote their business credit
cards and regularly ask for a SSN
59. Step 4- Obtain Revolving Accounts
• After 5 trade lines are established using
vendor accounts, obtaining revolving accounts
is the next step
• Revolving accounts are cards a business
owner can use and not be required to pay the
full balance owed each month
60. Obtain Revolving Accounts
• Revolving account approvals will begin coming
from stores
• Store revolving credit must be obtained
before the business owner starts getting Visa,
MC, Amex, type cards
61. Obtain Revolving Accounts
• Most stores will NOT approve a business owner for
business credit unless the owner has an
established credit profile and score, just like in the
consumer world
• Vendor accounts must be used first to establish a
profile and score, then store credit can be
obtained
• It usually takes only 90 days or less to establish a
62. Obtain Revolving Accounts
• Once 10 total accounts are on the credit, an
owner can then start applying for Visa, MC,
Amex type credit
• Approval amounts will be equivalent to the
highest credit limit account on the business
report
• Try to have 10 accounts with at
least one of them having a 10k
high limit
63. Obtain Revolving Accounts
• It is essential to keep using the credit, keep
applying for more, and talk with credit
providers to raise credit limits
• If you do this, business credit will keep
growing until higher limit credit lines are
obtained, within 6-12 months
