Business doesn't get done without credit.Neither, for that matter, does much in modern life in general. This means we must deal with banks, an action that makes people nervous and disheartened.It also means drafting business plans to explain your company's operations and future goals.Of all the demands placed on business people, especially those running start-up companies, dealing with banks and drafting business plans are two of the least enjoyable.
Banks want to be your lender and not you partner, banks love to market themselves as being your partner in business.The idea of having a partner with billions of dollars in assets may give you a warm fuzzy feeling, but it's not really true.The role of the bank is not to be a venture capitalist or a business partner;its to lend money that is expected to be paid back with added interest, which represent the banks profit, that's their business remember that the bank's business is to recover the money it lends along with interest accrued.If there is no guarantee of recovering money, the interest charged is relevant.That's why banks make such an effort to assess the security of their loans.
