Publisher's summary

Business credit is one of the most powerful forces in our society. It’s the secret of real estate moguls, business owners, and investors everywhere. Building business credit can empower you to separate your business finances from your personal and make big financial plays; poor business credit or none at all can leave you unable to make big purchases, unable to sustain your business, and burning through your personal savings. In this case, your business has become a personal liability that needs to be fixed. Yet we are not taught these things in school. If we are lucky we get the basic lesson “pay your bills and save up,” but too many people never learn the other strategic plays available to you to build business credit and obtain financing for your business.

In The Credit Game: Simple Secrets to Build Business Credit, Chevon Patrick breaks down exactly what goes into your business credit scores—and how to play each part of the field strategically to raise your business credit scores and obtain more purchasing power. Cultivating great credit is like cultivating a career in sports; greatness doesn’t happen overnight, but astounding things can happen when you go all in. With the knowledge shared in this book, you are more likely to create a winning team!

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Wow! This book is full of so much information - I am so happy there is a PDF version to go back to when I need to reference something. The attention to detail and clarity was very much appreciated - this felt like a power class by a business guru (without the price tag!). Very much recommend it to new and upcoming business owners - so much valuable credit, finance and money-handling information all in one place.

Build your business by building your credit

"The Credit Game" sheds light on the significant role business credit plays in the world of finance and entrepreneurship. It answers how to build credit without cash flow through actionable strategies. Separability and transferability, and all of the things you didn’t know about credit to position yourself in the best way for accessing capital without your personal credit line.

The audiobook provides details for the different types of credit and tiers of credit lines, as well as how to think about the associated risks and ease of use. As with personal credit, the author explains the important of remaining conservative while efficiently building up business credit for financing bigger and bolder visions. The steps covered include legal documents and business formation, optimizing your profile for the bureaus, vendor credit, and revolving and cash credit lines.

I appreciated the details for small businesses to help me understand the power of fixing and establishing good business credit to access SBA loans. There is a whole chapter on net 30 accounts and store credit to get started building up your score. The strategies go beyond “paying bills on time” and suggest using the best terms to impress the credit agencies as fast as possible by showing you can handle credit.

The author likens the journey of cultivating excellent credit to pursuing a career in sports: it requires dedication, effort, and time, but the potential rewards are astonishing. All great motivation to think about the long game for building a business!
