why not approach teh bank that you have a long standing relationship with?

you will need to sign a personal gurnatee so, might as well go with the bank that knows u best.

they will base the loan on 5 C's

Character (yourself)
Collateral (personal gurantee)
Capacity (how many pot plants :P )
Capital (other financing sources/options)
Condition (payback )


use that criteria to measure yourself and , highlight key points when discussing the loan.

not bad tiger.

financial statements too of your company, if you're 2 years and under, a good business case.

If you're really just starting out and have 0 money. Try Vancity and the Micro-Loan program.

Cheers.

And he's looking for 50-60k, read much?

Is this for a start up or an existing business?

This is for a start up. It's me and my partner so we see it might be easier to split it up $30,000 each. This week is bank week for us so any last suggestions are appreciated.

As for financial statements I have laid out our 12 month cash flow and cost benefit anaylsis on a month to month basis. I do believe I should have two more years of cash flow statements, but it just seems like a absolute guessing game.
