Highly recommended for any veteran business owner I've had the pleasure of meeting the StreetShares team in person, and they're a great group of people. Now, we've decided to work together formally and I couldn't be more excited. The process was easy, and I can see this being a powerful, long-term partnership. If you're a veteran looking for financing or to raise money for your business... STOP looking elsewhere and contact StreetShares. This is the best deal and team around. Plus, they're veteran led, and plenty of veterans work there. It's a win-win.

It was a hard road but hard work, as always, paid off... I want to personally thank the VP in charge of Marketing and Business Development, David Bann for reaching out to me and listening to my initial upset. His call was worth getting the Funds, even if I don't get funded. Street Shares is going through a growth phase and there was no mistake that how my account was handled was a reflection of a 'Perfect Storm' of internal changes and a Maternity Leave. David was great at listening to my 'Case' and we left the call in a great place with mutual respect and the relationship in tact. BTW, if you read up on David you'll see what a fine young man he is with a legacy of Service and Education.

Great idea, needs polish two parts - online and in person The online experience was OK, but the website could have been more upfront and explanatory about how the auction worked, blended rates, etc. But the website/platform had some glitches that were wholly unnecessary. When I spoke to someone on the phone they explained an upgrade was coming, hopefully these are resolved now. But for something having to do with decent amounts of money, that never should have happened. in person - the first phone call i made to streetshares the person answering the phone interrupted me in the middle of my very first sentence to tell me they were transferring me to someone else. this is ridiculously poor customer service. otherwise the people in e-mail and on the phone were great - but that one very first impression was a very poor one.

Expensive but accessible Costs for loan are high, but the process wasn't too hard and the turnaround was faster than a bank loan. There were some stumbles along the way, so it wasn't as fast as advertised, but they did get things sorted out and get me the funds in a reasonable timeframe. If your business is too small and too new to qualify for a bank loan, or has revenues too low for the bigger "small" business loan companies, try them out - they may surprise you.

Run 🏃‍♀️ as fast as you can Run 🏃‍♀️ as fast as you can. The treatment during the height of covid was ridiculous. They treated companies like 💩
