Funded with strategy.
For beauty entrepreneurs & service-based businessesBusiness Strategy Capital

The right capital.
The right strategy.

Funding built around your business

The right funding decision starts with understanding the business first. Capital should support the strategy—not replace it.

How it works

A clearer path to
business funding.

You don’t have to figure it all out at once.
We start where you are and move forward with intention.

01

Assess readiness

Understand where your business stands today—your finances, credit, records, and how the business runs day to day.

02

Clarify the capital need

Get clear on what the money should accomplish, when you need it, and what your business can reasonably support.

03

Prepare the business

Close readiness gaps, organize your documents, and put together the information funding providers usually ask for.

04

Explore aligned options

Review opportunities that may fit your business, goals, timing, and qualifications—based on each provider’s own criteria.

A thoughtful process. A more informed next step.Find your starting point

Funding options

Capital should fit the business.

Different goals call for different funding structures.
Here are some of the pathways you may explore.

01 /

Business lines of credit

A set limit you can draw from when you need it, and repay as you go.

May be worth exploring when…

Your expenses change month to month or your cash flow is uneven.

02 /

Term financing

A fixed amount of funding repaid over an agreed period of time.

May be worth exploring when…

You have a specific investment in mind and a clear plan for repayment.

03 /

SBA-backed financing

Loans from participating lenders that are partly backed by the U.S. Small Business Administration.

May be worth exploring when…

You are planning longer-term growth and can prepare detailed records.

04 /

Equipment financing

Funding used to buy equipment, where the equipment often helps secure the financing.

May be worth exploring when…

You are investing in salon tools, treatment devices, or other essential equipment.

05 /

Working capital

Funding that helps cover the everyday costs of running your business.

May be worth exploring when…

You need support with operating costs while building more stability.

06 /

Alternative business financing

Other funding structures, such as revenue-based options, that may use different repayment arrangements.

May be worth exploring when…

You can carefully review the full cost and how repayments affect your cash flow.

Available options vary by funding provider, business profile, financial condition, documentation, timing, market conditions, and other eligibility criteria. Not every funding option is appropriate or available for every business.
