Stop Looking For High-Risk Business Loans

The Small Business Jobs and Credit Act of 2010 is supposed to provide banks with lending capital to finance high risk business loans, but even when banks have been capitalized by federal dollars and loan guarantees in the past, they’ve proven themselves unwilling to take the risk of lending to small business owners. Banks are so risk averse right now that they’re practically strangling small businesses, which create nearly a million new jobs each year.

While small businesses languish without capital, unemployed Americans languish without jobs. Rapid Capital Funding is a specialist in high risk business loans. We can make up to $250,000 available immediately to businesses that generate at least $2,500 each month in credit and debit card receipts. Our business cash advance is available to most businesses regardless of the business’ credit history. Good credit, bad credit or no credit – we work with every business and approve more than 9 of 10 business cash advance applications.

If your small business needs capital but you’ve been turned down by the banks, or are afraid you will be, contact Rapid Capital Funding instead and let us show you how your business can generate its own high risk business loan!

Furniture Business Financing Still Available, Despite Weak Revenues

Weakness is the retail sector is causing some banks to withdraw furniture business financing at a time when furniture retailers need capital to keep their doors open. Sales of furniture are off substantially in the recession, but the sales slump isn’t just hitting the home furnishings industry. According to the Business and Institutional Furniture Manufacturers’ Association, production of business furniture in 2009 dropped nearly 30% compared to 2008 levels. Similarly, sales of office furniture were off by 29%.

The furniture industry as a whole has been hard-hit during the recession. Homeowners aren’t moving, a factor which heavily drives new furniture sales. Businesses aren’t buying as much new furniture as they had in the past in an effort to cut expenses. Currently, sales of refurbished office furniture account for about 15% of the office furniture sales market and are expected to climb as businesses look for more affordable furniture alternatives.

Rapid Capital Funding is a specialist in small business financing and we can provide your retail furniture business with the capital you need to make your business run smoothly. If your business generates at least $2,500 each month in credit and debit receipts, you may qualify for furniture business financing of as much as $250,000.

Our business cash advance also eliminates monthly minimum payments. Each credit or debit sale will help you repay your advance. A portion of each sale is used to repay your advance, but the vast majority of the proceeds come back to you. That way, you get the cash you need up front and you get the cash flow that keeps your business moving!

Internet Business Financing Can Help Your Business Soar

With unemployment at its highest point in more than 12 years, more people are looking for additional income and new job opportunities.

Retail Business Financing Questionable As Moody’s Downgrades Sector

Moody’s Investors Service lowered its assessment of the retail sector to “stable” today. Previously, the investment analysis firm had given retailers a “positive” outlook. Despite the fact that some analysts are now saying the recession is finished, prospects for retail store business financing opportunities through traditional lenders don’t look promising.

This poses a problem for retailers as they head into the holiday shopping season. Having received only a modest boost in sales during the “back-to-school” season in August, retailers are looking to holiday sales to boost their bottom lines. Getting retail business financing is critical to help ease holiday cash flow problems, hire additional workers, stock up on merchandise and set aggressive pricing for holiday shoppers.

Rapid Capital Funding is a leader in small business financing alternatives, including retail business financing. Our merchant cash advance enables retailers to get the cash they need up front and provides easy repayment terms, too.

If you need to secure retail business financing in advance of the holiday shopping season, contact Rapid Capital Funding today and let us show you how a merchant cash advance can help your retail business have a great holiday season.

Small Business Financing Alternatives In High Demand

According to a report by the National Small Business Association, the number of small business owners who say they can’t get financing has nearly doubled in the past two years. More than 40% of small business owners say that they have no access to capital from banks and other lenders. This cash crunch is sending them on the hunt for small business financing loan alternatives.

Small business financing is critical to job creation, says the Small Business Administration, which claims that small businesses in the US are responsible for creating about two-thirds of new jobs in today’s economy. Unfortunately, new small business loans fell by one-third in 2009 and this lending pace doesn’t look to improve anytime soon.

So small business owners are looking for small business loan alternatives to provide the cash they need to keep their doors open. Small business loan alternatives include funding mechanisms like Rapid Capital Funding’s business cash advance. With a business cash advance, a small business sells a portion of its future credit and debit card sales in exchange for cash. To repay the advance, a smalal portion of each sale is then used to repay the advance, while the rest comes back to the business owner.

Credit card factoring is nothing new, but more small businesses are looking for creative ways to get the small business financing they need through more cooperative lenders. For more information about credit card factoring and to learn whether it’s a viable small business loan alternative for your business, contact Rapid Capital Funding today!

Despite this relative economic health, finding beauty salon financing continues to be a challenge because lenders have almost virtually eliminated small business financing in response to the recession.

If you own a beauty salon or are in need of beauty salon financing, Rapid Capital Funding can provide as much as $250,000 in cash almost instantly with our merchant cash advance. If your business generates at least $2,500 in credit and debit receipts, you’re likely qualified for a merchant cash advance.

With a merchant cash advance from Rapid Capital Funding, your business gets the cash it needs up front with no restrictions on how the funding is used. Your business generates its own financing by selling a portion of its future credit and debit card sales for cash up front, in a process known as factoring.

That’s right – your business doesn’t need to make a minimum monthly payment on the merchant cash advance.

Each credit or debit card transaction you process helps to repay your advance. In this way, your business gets the cash flow it needs from daily sales, and also gets capital for things like improvements, expansion, hiring, repairs and other business activities. Contact Rapid Capital Funding today and find out more about how your business can generate its own beauty salon financing.

Women Tend To Steer Clear Of Fast Food Franchises

Typically, experience, franchise business financing, and personal factors all represent barriers to successful franchising, but a new report says that fast-food franchising is particularly unattractive to women. A report by the Society For Industrial and Organizational Psychology (SIOP) contends that women tend to shy away from fast food franchises because the restaurant business tends to interfere with family obligations.

That’s not the sole reason however, since the organization also says that single women also tend to avoid fast-food franchises, and overall, women account for about 25% of all independent restaurant owners. In contrast, women represent just 13% of franchise restaurant operators.

Inflexibility in franchise restaurant operations is cited as one of the primary demotivators for women who are considering a franchise business. Franchisers typically control everything from the suppliers to the restaurant décor, something that the SIOP notes is a major turnoff for women.

Risk turns out to be another major turn-off. As a group, women tend to be more risk-intolerant than men. This comes into play when considering the personal investment involved in acquiring a fast food franchise. Typical franchise fees range anywhere from three-quarters of a million dollars to $3 million or more. The franchisee must come up with the franchising fees and this often means a substantial personal investment.
Rapid Capital Funding can provide a ready source of franchise business financing for expansion, remodeling, repairs and operating expenses. Our business cash advance is ideal for any business that generates at least $2,500 monthly in credit and debit card receipts. Contact Rapid Capital Funding today for more information on our franchise business financing opportunities.

Hotel And Motel Business Financing To Battle Bedbugs

The battle against bedbugs is heating up, literally. Bedbugs have been found in some of the country’s finest hotels, and treating these pests is no small feat. Most hotels have a protocol for treating bedbug infestations but the cost can be alarmingly high. Independent hotels looking for a ready source of hotel and motel business financing to help combat treatment and income losses should consider a business cash advance from Rapid Capital Funding.

The key to treating bedbug infestations is quick action, but often by the time the hotel management discovers the pest, it’s too late. Bedbug treatments are expensive, ranging in the thousands of dollars. Heat treatments that raise the temperature of an affected room to 120°F combined with chemical pesticides can be effective, but adjoining rooms must also be treated and the bedding in the rooms must be discarded. The entire treatment process can take a few days, and cost upwards of $5,000 when income losses and furniture replacement costs are factored in.

Rapid Capital Funding’s business cash advance provides your hotel and motel business with quick access to cash, enabling your business to respond immediately to the problem. While the cost of treating a bedbug infestation may be high, the cost of not doing anything may be even higher. New Internet-based registries enable hotel guests to report bedbug infestations online as a warning to other travelers. An entry on one of these registries can cause your hotel and motel business to lose thousands of dollars worth of business.

If you’re looking for fast hotel and motel business financing, contact Rapid Capital Funding today and let us show you how your business can get up to $250,000 in hotel and motel business financing almost immediately.
