Referrals to VCs and Angel groups from a trusted source are a proven way to make a first impression--but it is only on paper, and even then, only if you already have that connection. For the rest of us, there's Speed Venture Summit--where capital & business match in minutes(SM). http://www.speedventuresummit.org. At SVS, company execs speed pitch their growth story to 6 different private capital investor groups in a single afternoon, and find out in minutes whether they have a call-back for a management presentation.

This is a great article point out pros and cons associated with $35000 SBA ARC Loan program. Although it was listed as a pro, the fact that that lenders can't charge a fee leaves them in a position where they must bear the upfront administrative costs to process these loans. Many have voiced a real concern as to whether this program makes economic sense for them to participate. Additionally, the application requires some real attention to many details to ensure that everything is in compliance and the lenders may not be able to spend the time with borrowers to lead them through the process.

My company, Business Borrowers Alliance, will be offering detailed guidance regarding eligibility and the complete application process in the role of a third party loan consultant. For more information, visit our website at www.businessborrowersalliance.org
