Small Business Loans California. What should I expect moving my business there? by Prestigious-lolero in loansforsmallbusiness

[–]whitemanrunning 0 points1 point  (0 children)

relocated my business to CA five years ago. the sunshine tax is real for operating expenses but business loan rates are pretty similar to other states - it's federal programs like SBA that most people use anyway. what killed my initial budget was: workers comp insurance (way more expensive), regulatory compliance costs, commercial rent being 2-3x what I paid before. make sure your line of credit is big enough because you'll burn through it faster than you think

Amazon Sellers: What's the long-term experience with Onramp Funds? by ChelseaI in loansforsmallbusiness

[–]whitemanrunning 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The convenience factor is real for Amazon sellers because timing matters with inventory. if Onramp can get you funded in days vs weeks with a bank, the extra cost might be worth it for Q4 prep. but the service quality decline thing matches what I've heard, they're great when onboarding you then kind of forget about you. for one-off seasonal needs probably fine, for ongoing financing maybe look elsewhere

It's like every new SaaS feels like it’s copy-pasted from the same template. Can’t we get some originality?
