Would that be worthwhile to you, especially if those secrets, tips, and traps came from one of the leading entrepreneurs in Texas and one of the most experienced bankers? Would that be worth a look?
“Getting To Yes With Your Banker” is an invaluable resource for any business owner in today’s world, and we invite you to contact us at (817) 834-3625 for more information about this informative book.
About the book
Small business loans are notoriously hard to come by. Sure, there are many resources out there, and many ways to obtain money. But for every resource out there, you can count on hundreds, if not thousands, of business owners vying for it. As competitive as the business world is, obtaining money is infinitely harder and more competitive. This book takes you inside the world of banking finance. It takes you inside the minds of bankers. It tells you what bankers are looking for in loan recipients. It provides valuable information which will not only get your foot inside the bank but will take you all the way around the bases to the score.
This is a book based upon trial and error. It is a book based upon experience. Today Ron Sturgeon owns numerous businesses and is well-known in Texas and nationally as a self-made millionaire at the top of his game, but even Ron Sturgeon started out needing money to finance his dreams. This book tells you the secrets it took Ron decades to learn.
It is also a book written by a banker, a man inside the hallowed halls of finance, a book based upon a thousand business dealings with a thousand small business owners. It is a book based upon the mistakes made and the victories gained along that path.
Tip examples in this book
“Appraisals are not always needed!” If a property’s value is below a certain dollar amount, an appraisal may not be needed. The threshold varies by bank. Knowing that threshold and understanding the rules to the game will go a long way towards securing a bank loan.
“All Appraisals Are Not Created Equal!” In commercial real estate, appraisals can either be full-scope or limited-scope. Typically a limited scope appraisal is all you will need to obtain a loan.
These are just two examples of insider information from book snippets most business owners are unaware of, and there are countless other tips in this book. Can you really afford to not purchase this book?
Bottom line
There are certain things your banker is not going to tell you. They are not that forthcoming in giving out this information. They are working from the assumption that if you want the loan badly enough, you will learn the rules of the banking industry. This book gives you that information and those rules. It gives you the secrets you need to intelligently ask for and secure a business loand.
You really need this book!
“Getting to Yes With Your Banker” should be sitting on your bookshelf right now and be given as premium gifts to clients. It is a book filled with tips for building a relationship with your banker, a relationship which will pay dividends for years to come.
