The deadline is 10/1/25🚨 https://d.helloskip.com/N4ro

This week, the Co-Founder of HelloAlice, which has a database of over 1.5 million business owners, sponsored a private event in Dallas for 100 business owners. While I was writing my name on my name tag, a woman approached my toddler and started playing with her on the floor. I introduced myself and asked for her name, and it turned out to be Elizabeth Gore, the Co-Founder of HelloAlice. In my head, I was thinking that my daughter had no idea who this woman was, lol! Anyway, Elizabeth pulled out her phone and took a selfie with me. Afterward, I apologized for bringing my daughter, the only child at the event, and Elizabeth reassured me that it was perfectly fine. She shared her story about building her company while having her daughter attend all of her events as well. I know this might sound strange, but our conversation felt more like a mom-to-mom chat than a business discussion. At the end of the event, I asked Elizabeth if she could send me the picture we took together, and she kindly provided me with her personal email. She encouraged me to send her information about my business because she's always looking to feature entrepreneurs on her podcast with Yahoo Finance. I’m still processing everything, but I feel incredibly grateful for how friendly she was. I’m hopeful that my business will one day be as impactful as HelloAlice has been, just as I hope for each of yours, while I continue to build mine alongside my toddler. Have a great weekend! P.S. I've been attending events and conferences all week, so I plan to share more insights about helping you with your finances next week. I will share the photo proof as soon as Elizabeth sends it to me! 😊

Did you know that if you are trying to apply for a business loan , that you may be getting denied because you aren’t generating enough money in your business? Banks have a rating system to determine who will be approved or denied. They rate your business based on your average daily balance over 90 days. Here’s how those bank ratings break down: High 5 Rating: $70,000 to $99,999 Mid 5 Rating: $40,000 to $69,999 Low 5 Rating: $10,000 to $39,999 High 4 Rating: $7,000 to $9,999 Mid 4 Rating: $4,000 to $6,999 Low 4 Rating: $1,000 to $3,999 The rule of thumb is that businesses in the Low 5- High 5 Ratings has the highest chance of getting funding from a bank, because they show financial stability. Unlike your personal credit score, you can get denied with a good business credit score, because banks are more interested that you can make you and them money, than just having a “clean record”. With this new information, here’s your homework over the weekend: 1. Calculate how much money you’ve earned over the last 90 days. 2. Look at the ratings and see how your business rate. 3. Determine how you are going to increase your revenue: Increase your price, get new customers/clients (how many do you need?), add another source of income, etc. 4. Write the timeframe that you plan to achieve your new business rating. 5. Execute! Until next time, Willita
