Great, But How Can I Get an SBA Loan for My Business?

Don't apply for a loan directly with the SBA. You need to apply for an SBA loan with a local or national bank, not with the SBA. The bank processes the loan and gives you the money, and the SBA simply guarantees a portion of the loan.

This firm was able to get an SBA loan -- a strong sign of business strength. Do you think you have what it takes to get an SBA loan too? The SBA can be a great solution for raising money quickly to start or grow a business. Your next step is to speak with a banker at an SBA approved bank.
