The primary reason to build Corporate Credit is that doing so separates the owner’s Personal Credit and Business Credit. Typically, starting a business can require a person to delve heavily into Personal Credit, which can lead to a lack of emergency funds, a plummeting Fico Score, and a steadily rising Debt/Income ratio. In that event, no lender is likely to help.
But through our programs, we build your company’s Paydex Score and establish Corporate Credit so that from day one start-up costs can be channeled through the business and leaves the owner’s funds relatively untouched, as the owner’s Personal Credit and the business’s Corporate Credit are considered separate entities.
Additionally, that separation negates the risk that lenders will require that the owner’s assets be tapped to guarantee financing. Having Corporate Credit can also save you money. Average Interest rates on loans are about 18%, but by having a Business Credit and Paydex Score, Interest rates can be reduced to about 10%.
Corporate Credit is limited to fully incorporated companies and LLCs. All other forms of business are barred from building credit. In sole proprietorships and partnerships, while you may be “in business,” you are not “a business,” and that distinction is crucial in separating your Personal Credit from your Business Credit. If you don’t have a business entity (an LLC or Inc.), we can assist you in establishing both your business entity and your business financing.
