Artisia, the owner of The Fashion Junkie Boutique LLC, was referred to our team through the Western Women’s Business Center in Charlotte North Carolina. She was in desperate need of finding working capital to fulfill her Pop-Up Shop needs for a holiday showcase. The company was becoming very popular and managing the inventory demands required an emergency infusion of capital ASAP. Artisia had only 4 weeks to find a way to reach her end of year sales goals, so we got to work.

We provided a deep dive review of her sales goals and retail sales opportunities which enabled our team to develop a fresh set of financial projections and a business summary that could be provided to the lender. We recommended Thread Capital, www.threadcap.org, because they specialized in small business lending for minority owned businesses that were struggling to find affordable lending quickly. Our team provided support to ensure that the client was able to provide all the critical documents needed for a successful loan package within one week to meet the deadline for lending reviews.
