Time isn’t going any slower, and that’s especially the case for entrepreneurs, investors, and small business owners. Progressively inching closer and closer to a technology-oriented economy, 2018 could show some interesting trends and developments in the way of launching a small business. While our finance factoring experts at The Commercial Finance Group aren’t exactly sure [...]
Congratulations! What was once a mere idea has now come to life in the form of an actual business with an actual revenue. Launching a business is easier said than done, of course, but here at The Commercial Finance Group, we have a lot of respect for our fellow entrepreneurs. The beauty of the modern [...]
For many small business owners, their company means everything to them, and it might even be all that they have. So, it would only make sense to protect such an important business, the sole income of many entrepreneurs. After working day in and day out for months to years on end, you certainly wouldn’t want [...]
For most service-based businesses and ecommerce stores, the holiday season is a good thing. With a definitive increase in sales, it’s easy to get caught up in your company’s success during this shopping-fueled time of year.
