Fact: access to capital remains the single biggest roadblock for women businessowners. And today, as soaring inflation, price hikes, supply chain disruptions, and hiring challenges compound the pandemic struggles of the past two years, a strong financial foundation is more important than ever. We all love free money, but with grants few and far between, business loans are one of the most powerful tools for allowing entrepreneurs to launch, grow, and realize their full earning potential. During this workshop you will learn:  

• The different types of business loans and how to know which loan option is best for you 
• What financial lenders are looking for when you apply for a loan 
• What to prepare when you’re ready to approach a lender 
• How to get past a poor credit score 
• How to evaluate a loan offer 

During this session you will hear from a variety of lenders, from traditional bank lenders, micro-lenders and CDFI's. Join us and learn everything you need to know to make the right financial decisions for you and your business.
