When businesses need money, they need it fast. This easy-to-use guidebook streamlines the process of obtaining a business loan and helps business owners quickly navigate the confusing lending process. Drawing on the her nearly 20 years of experience in working with entrepreneurs, Business Loan in a Day best-selling author and small business guru Rhonda Abrams outlines a wide range of loan choices, including bank loans and lines of credit, SBA loans, vendor financing, loans from friends and family, and even credit card financing. The book addresses not only the concrete, factual issues of the loan process  documentation, understanding banking terminology, determining the loan amount, overcoming past financial difficulties  but also deals with the emotional barriers that can make applying for a loan difficult for both first-time applicants and established business owners.
