What financing options are available for aspiring and existing entrepreneurs? This workshop by SCORE provides a view into the world of online lending and helps guide businesses to their best funding options.

Your presenter will explain how the different types of financing work and who provides them, which financing options are right for different types of businesses, how to apply for financing, what to expect after the application is submitted, and how likely you are to get approved. Learn what is right for you and the difference between Non-Profit Lenders, Crowdfunding, Invoice Financing, Online Lending and Loan Matching Sites.
