This small business received financial assistance through the SBA's lending programs back in 2000. They applied for an SBA loan with Firstmerit Bank, out of North Olmsted, Ohio. The loan was granted and they received $150,000 to help grow their Lakewood, Ohio business.

More Information on This SBA Loan

The borrower borrowed this money for a new business. The SBA's records indicate that the loan was not for investment in a franchise. At the time of the loan, the company had 10 employees. The loan application did not indicate that the business promised to use the funding to add employees or retain any existing employees.

Next Steps for Getting an SBA Loan

Every year, the SBA guarantees over $10 billion for loans just like this one.

SBA loan guarantees are not loans per se. The SBA simply guarantees the loan, but banks and other lending institutions grant you the loan and give you the money. So, just as this company walked into Firstmerit Bank and applied for an SBA loan, you have to do the same thing. You need to demonstrate business strength and potential, but the sooner you start, the faster you'll get the money if you qualify!
