When Banks Say No

January 16, 2024 @ 5:00 pm - 6:00 pm

Free

It’s tough for small businesses to get funding. In fact, 75-80% of small business loan requests are denied

by banks. So, what’s a small business owner to do when the bank says no? Find alternative funding

sources! “When Banks Say No” provides an overview of alternative funding options for small business

owners who need money to start, support or grow their businesses.

 

Takeaways from and Benefits of Attending “When Banks Say No”:

1. Hope! A “no” from the bank is not the end of the road. There are many options available for

nearly any business situation.

2. Understanding! We’ll explain many funding options that banks just don’t offer. One might be

just what you need!

3. Direction! When you identify one or two loan options that work for you, you can take the steps

towards acquiring that money to start or support or grow your business.
