Workshop Description

How’s your credit and do you understand how it could impact seeing your dream come alive?

Your credit report serves as your financial reference to companies and lenders and can have a significant impact on the options you have when seeking funding for your business. When you apply for business credit, your personal credit will be a major factor into whether you will receive credit and how much you’ll pay for it.

In this workshop we’ll explore the dynamics of credit including credit reporting, personal & business creditworthiness, how credit reporting works, the benefits to small business in credit reporting, the risks from credit scams and, strategies to build or improve your credit!

Join us to learn more about one of the most important areas in seeing your dream of starting a business come alive. This is a great session led by one of our communities business leaders, Ned O'Sullivan from Fidelity Bank.
