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

The Small Business Administration (SBA) is a federal government agency that has many different programs to help small business owners. The SBA Microloan Program, for example, provides very small loans to start-up, newly established, or growing small business concerns. The SBA also has special programs for women and minorities. However, the most popular SBA program is their loan guarantee program for small businesses.

The SBA is important source of financing for entrepreneurs like you. Take this loan, for example. The company needed a loan. Cit Small Business Lending Corp had a strong track record in business lending, and with the SBA stepping up and agreeing to guarantee part of the loan, Cit Small Business Lending Corp made the loan. The end result was that this firm was given the opportunity to grow their business and enhance the lives of their employees and customers.

The process for getting an SBA loan is relatively straight-forward. Sit down with your banker and they will explain the process in detail.
