1. Write Down Your Small Business Areas of Interest
Even if you don’t yet know exactly which business, franchise or original concept you’re going to move forward with, it’s always helpful to map out some potential ideas on paper before the discussion with your consultant. We don’t expect you to have mapped out your business plan, but starting with at least a few areas of interest can help us offer you better insights and relatable perspectives from clients we’ve helped previously.
2. Take a Quick Look at Our Products
If you’re unfamiliar with Guidant’s full suite of small business funding products, I’d encourage you to take a quick look at our options before your consultation. Make note of the pros and cons of each method, which leads me to my next point…
3. List Out Your Primary Concerns and Questions
After you’ve looked over the small business financing products you think may work for you, make sure you jot down any questions or concerns for those specific options. This allows your consultant to customize the information he shares to address your specific circumstances and will save time for any additional questions you may have.
4. Fill Out Our 5-Minute Questionnaire
We know what you might be thinking – 5 minutes can seem like a lot of time if you have a busy schedule. But by filling out our financial questionnaire prior to your call, it will save you time in the long run. If your consultant has a snapshot of your finances before your consultation, he can dive into the funding solutions that will work for you rather than wasting time talking about products that may not be viable.
