You, Your Business Finance is on Fire!

Hard-living rock band Kings of Leon have released details of a clothing range that they plan to start selling later this month. It is called KOLxS2A. It appears that KOL were not content with record breaking, sell out audiences, in jam packed pop stadiums, no, they decide to sell leather jackets, shirts and boots at eye watering prices.  I wonder if they had the money to fund this themselves or did they seek some sort of professional help from either a bank or a financial advisory company who may suggest various strategies including some business finance  advice.  Were they offered a business loan or even an overdraft facility to help them get started?  Answers are, they most probably had adequate funding themselves but many new companies, like myself starting out today need some sort of business plan to help with funding and costs, until the profits start rolling in

This is particularly true for people without a home to put forward as collateral who can only hope for an unsecured loan.  Recently, a new type of loan product has become available, which is appealing to people with unfavorable credit scores who are struggling to obtain the loan they require. This product is known as a ‘guarantor loan’.

This is a preview of Loan and Groan?. Read the full post (350 words, estimated 1:24 mins reading time)
