Our goal is to make sure your business has the resources you need to weather this storm. If you’re looking for some specific things you can do right now to protect your business, check out our blog post on The 7 Action Items to Stay Afloat During the Pandemic. Below we’re sharing some resources available to you including SBA loans, APC loans & resources, as well as marketing resources from Butler Branding.
One option available for small businesses is EIDL. Small businesses, agricultural cooperatives, aquaculture businesses, and most private non-profit organizations are eligible to apply. These are long-term, low-interest loans with retainment terms up to 30 years. For more information on these loans, watch the replay of our webinar with SBA, or learn more on the SBA website.
This disaster relief program extends through December 2020. There is no limit on the number of businesses SBA can assist, so you have time to decide if you need this assistance. Payments on these loans are also deferred for 12 months to give businesses immediate working capital and breathing room before repayment. There is no cost to apply, and approval does not require you to accept the loan.
Access Plus Capital encourages everyone to apply for SBA loans if they are eligible. We know the eligibility and documentation required for the SBA loans can sometimes be a challenge for some business owners. If you are in a situation where you don’t have all the documentation to apply for the SBA disaster relief loans, Access Plus Capital has some options that don’t require as much documentation:
