Join Huntington Bank and Oakland Thrive for an interactive workshop designed to help business owners confidently prepare for financing. Participants will learn how to determine their true capital needs—including the right amount, purpose, timing, and structure—while understanding the difference between personal and business credit and how lenders evaluate both. The session will break down the Five C’s of Credit, with special emphasis on why cash flow is the primary driver of lending decisions.
Attendees will also explore how to use their business plan to present a compelling financial story, gain insight into the questions bankers ask (and the questions owners should ask in return), and walk through practical loan-readiness steps. From required documents and credit review to relationship building and assembling a strong loan package, participants will leave with a clear roadmap to approach funding strategically and successfully.
