MSBDC Live Webinar: Are You Bankable?

Your small business is “bankable” if a commercial bank or lending institution is willing to offer you financing, such as a loan or line of credit. Small business owners often seek financing to buy equipment or inventory, launch a new product line, open or expand retail or manufacturing operations, further grow an existing business, and more.

Contrary to popular belief, banks are eager to lend to small businesses. However, in order to be bankable, you need to understand your business' numbers, how to organize the numbers for a commercial loan, and how to present your personal and business story in a compelling manner.

In this webinar, you will learn how to:  

• Think Like a Banker – Discover how financial institutions assess your bankability
• Master Your Business Narrative – Craft a persuasive story that highlights your strengths and the opportunity
• Navigate Financial Imperfections – Learn how to present past challenges in the best possible light
• Prepare Your Documentation – Gather the right financial records to streamline your loan application

The webinar will be led by Karen Baldeschwieler, a small business consultant with Zenagos. Also joining us will be local commercial bankers.
