In 90 - 120 days business owners can obtain $100k to $250k in unsecured business lines of credit themselves.Follow these simple steps:1) Establish a strong internet presence for your company by listing it on at least 15 sites-- Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, Scoop It, Bing, Manta, 411, Google+, Google Places, etc.2) Establish a business checking account at 2 banks (with a 700 credit each will offer a business credit card.3) Make regular deposits into your business checking account for 90 days to establish a favorable bank rating.4) Add higher level trade references to Dun and Bradstreet to provide depth to your Paydex Score (net 30s are usually lower amounts; you'll need higher approvals from your trade references-- 2k to 4k).5) Upload your company financials to Dun and Bradstreet to complete your file and create a strong credit profile.6) After 90 days apply for unsecured lines of credit.
