Small businesses hear it often while asking for financial help. I heard it myself from my bank, despite being their loyal customer for years. When I asked for a loan to help grow my business, their response shocked me. The bank told me that they would only lend me money if I already had plenty of it. So, in other words, \u201cNO\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It just didn\u2019t make sense to me. If I already had the money I needed, why would I be asking for a loan in the first place? Yet, that\u2019s how banks work- they hold power, they make the customer take all of the risks, and they are only there for you when you no longer need them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After that experience, everything became clear: we needed something better, something designed for entrepreneurs and not for the wealthy.&nbsp;<strong>We needed an alternative to banks.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I began to liquidate my bank account and give Factris all that I had in order to help businesses access capital when it\u2019s needed the most.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Since then, Factris has been able to achieve what was once thought to be impossible: Place the strength, expertise and resources of an international financial company straight into the hands of local, hard-working entrepreneurs throughout Europe. No more faceless financiers pulling strings and holding all the aces. At last, financing that small businesses can access quickly and easily.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That\u2019s why Factris is here: to be there for you as you grow your small business.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u2013 Brian Reaves, CEO of Factris<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yes to financing your small business.
