How to Apply for a Business Loan in Victoria

The first step to securing a business loan in Victoria is to apply for one. It would be great if lenders gave out business loans to every company that needs them, but that isn’t the case. As a result, you need to prove to the lender that your company not only needs the loan but also that you will be able to pay it back on time.

Get Your Finances in Order

The first thing to do to give yourself a good chance of being approved for a business loan is to make sure all of your business and personal finances are in order. You need to make sure any debt you have is at a manageable level and that your credit is in a good place. Lenders in Victoria will look at a variety of different financial aspects of the business, so ensure everything is in good shape before applying.

Create a Business Plan

Be sure to know what you want to use the business loan for. Most lenders in Victoria and Canada, in general, will want to see some sort of a business plan so they can understand how you plan to use the loan to grow and improve your company. This isn’t always the case, but it couldn’t hurt to have something prepared in case they are curious.

What Can You Use a Business Loan For in Victoria?

However, before you apply for a business loan, it is important to know what you can use a business loan for. The great news is, there are no set rules that dictate what a business loan can be used on in Victoria. Generally, the loan is used to expand or improve the business in some way. Some of the things companies will use a business loan on include:

  • Increase marketing efforts or get into new marketing channels
  • Hire new employees
  • Make upgrades to your current location
  • Move to a larger office or location
  • Buy new equipment or fix the equipment you currently have
  • Expand your online business
  • Be able to make larger bulk purchases to lower COGS

While securing a large business loan might seem like a good idea to get you ahead of the game, you should generally only borrow what you need and what you can afford to pay back. If you take out a loan you can barely afford, and then your sales begin to dip, you might struggle to pay back the loan. This could ultimately lead to your business failing.

The Different Types of Available Business Financing in Victoria

While a business loan is likely the most popular option to infuse some money into your business, it is far from the only one. In fact, there are several different ways to get some extra cash to finance your business in addition to the standard small business loan. These include:

  • Commercial Mortgage (Great if you need to expand your current office or get another)
  • Merchant Cash Advance (Leverage future cash flows into capital today for your business)
  • Equipment Financing (Specialized loans specifically for getting new equipment)

As for which one you choose, that is completely up to you. Each has their own pros and cons, and the right choice will differ depending on the type of business you have, what you need, the size of your business and your revenue.
