Course Title: Business Credit Mastery: 20 Steps to Structuring a Business for Credit Without a Personal Guarantee Course Description This comprehensive course is designed to transform aspiring and existing entrepreneurs into credit-ready business owners. Based on the eBook “20 Steps to Properly Structure a Business for Credit” by Marcus Mavakala, the program walks participants through every step required to establish, structure, and scale a business capable of qualifying for credit and financing — all without relying on personal guarantees.
