Funding A Business With A Bad Credit History
By Joe Kenny
Most businesses have a time in their life when they need funds in order to grow. What do you do, however, when you need the money to grow, but you also have bad credit? Many banks will not give a loan under such circumstances. It is considered a potentially bad risk. Today, there are actually a number of places where you can still get that loan you need. Here are a few things you can do to fund your business venture.
Starting A Business
If you are just starting a new business, as an entrepreneur, then getting that new loan is tied to your own credit ratings. If you have bad credit, the easiest way to get the loan you need is to get a secured loan. This means that you put up something as collateral for the financing. The only thing is, you want to be quite sure that you can pay off the loan, since your house (or car) is probably tied to it.
Higher Interest
An unsecured loan is also a possibility, but you probably will not be able to get as much (probably about half as much, or less) as with a secured loan. Loan agencies look at a credit rating as a reference of your likelihood to pay. If you show them some collateral, this will make them pretty happy. If you do not, you will not come away with as much money. But in either case, a bad credit rating will get you a much higher interest rate.
Loans Available
Although your bank probably will not give you the loan, there are many other agencies available that will. It

Online University Design
An online university is a web site that provides a complete "one-stop shop" for all your employees' training
needs. By logging into an online university, your employees obtain information about newly released training
programs, guidance on the programs that are appropriate for them, registration services for both online and
classroom courses, and immediate access to their training records.
Online universities are not the exclusive province of large corporations. Small and midsize firms that do not
have their own private networks can provide online university services to their employees using an ASP
(Application Solution Provider) model. Many of the key features of online universities are now offered by a
national and international suppliers on an outsourced basis.
How to Teach Adult Learners
Many aspects of teaching adults are fundamentally different than those employed in teaching children.
Andragogy is a word popularized at the end of the twentieth century to describe the difference. This article
by D. Verne Morland, managing partner of ROI Learning Services, highlights the important principles in
teaching adults and suggests how they can be applied to business training.
How to Write Instructional Articles
Instructional articles are very different from articles in reference manuals, product brochures, or even
professional literature. This article by Herbert L. Bivens, chief learning officer of ROI Learning Services,
defines instructional articles and describes how to write them.
Put Earn in Your Learning
Many companies view training as a component of their employee benefits package - an expense to be controlled,
not an investment to be maximized. This attitude is dangerously outdated. Survival in today's global economy
requires continuous, cost-effective, world-class training. This article by D. Verne Morland, managing partner
of ROI Learning Services, explains how to identify the "earn" in learning and measure the results
as you would with any other business investment.
Online and Blended Course Development
Online courses are self-contained, independent-study programs delivered via the worldwide web. They may be
relatively simple and short, delivering a little knowledge when and where it is needed. Or they may be
sophisticated, multimedia learning experiences that engage students for many hours over several sittings.
Online courses are primarily useful for conveying new information; they are less effective in conveying and
rehearsing new skills and in motivating students to apply their new knowledge.
Blended courses use a combination or blend of instructional methods and delivery technologies to convey
information, skills, and motivation to students. Blended courses offer almost all of the same instructional
methods and benefits as classroom courses, but with the distinct benefit of being delivered virtually.
ROI Learning Services has the expertise to identify which type of course is best for your company's
learning needs and we can deliver high quality programs that will have a measurable impact on your
business results.
Designing Online Courses for Adult Learners
At most schools of education aspiring teachers are taught the elements of pedagogy – the art and science
of teaching children. Many aspects of teaching adults are fundamentally different than those employed in
teaching children and for this reason a new word gained currency in the late 20th century – andragogy. This
article highlights the important principles in teaching adults and suggests teaching strategies to support
these principles in online courses for higher education and corporate learning programs.
ROI Learning Scorecard [tm]
The ROI Learning Scorecard [tm] is based on the Balanced Scorecard concept created in 1992 by Dr. Robert S.
Kaplan and Dr. David P. Norton. Having a balanced scorecard requires you to plan, manage, and measure your
organization from four perspectives: 1) The Learning and Growth Perspective, 2) The Business Process
Perspective, 3) The Customer Perspective, and 4) The Financial Perspective. This philosophy is consistent
with ROI Learning's holistic approach to training and organization development. By using our ROI
Learning Scorecard your company will focus on and invest in the right programs to build and nurture a
continuous learning organization.
Education Consulting
Survival in today's global economy requires world-class performance. World-class performance requires continuous,
cost-effective, world-class learning. The consulting and course development services provided by ROI Learning
enable businesses in all industries to achieve world-class learning results while maximize the return on their
learning investments.
How to Save Money on Training
Significant cost savings can be achieved by using technology to deliver training outside the traditional
classroom. This article illustrates the component costs of a hypothetical two-day classroom course delivered
to 20 students ten times a year and explains the significant reduction in training costs that can be achieved
by using a "blended" delivery approach.
How to Use Training to Improve Your Business Results
Training your employees is an investment in your business and like any smart investment it should have a
good rate of return. Although training is not the solution to every problem, where it fits it can improve
your sales and sales productivity; it can lower your costs and improve your gross margin; and it can bring
expenses into line and increase your profitability. This article explains that by investing in the right
programs managers will clearly see the business results and will, at the same time, be creating a highly
competitive, continuous learning organization.

will be easiest to find them through the Internet, and where you also have the convenience of applying online. Do Some Comparison Shopping You should apply for your business loan at a Website where you can get several offers from the same application. This will definitely simplify things. Otherwise, you will need to be filling out many forms - many times. It would be a real good idea to apply at more than one Website, too. Then, after you get the various offers, you need to sit down and take some time to determine which one you really want, and which one is most suitable to your financial situation and goals. By looking around, and not being in such a hurry, you probably can find a good loan with some rather decent interest rates and lower payments, too. Check The Institutions Credibility Before you sign the dotted line though, because you are so happy that they will fund your new business, you need to check out the agency to make sure it is a legitimate business. There is a whole lot of fraud going on these days and you don't want it to further effect your credit rating. Build Your Credit Rating The best loans, of course, come when you have a good credit rating. You may want to consider the possibility of taking out a small loan first, and pay it off quickly in order to start repairing that bad rating. Keep this loan small because it will have high interest, start to repair your rating, and then go for the bigger loan that has a lower level of interest. There are also other things you can do, too, to get your rating in a good condition.
