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

Remember, you 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.

Folks who know a lot about raising money for companies know that SBA guaranteed loans are a great funding source for small businesses. Talk to a bank like Bank Of The West and they will explain how you can get an SBA loan for your company.
