CapReady Advisory
Banker-level guidance for business owners preparing for bank financing. CapReadyâs advisory process is designed to mirror how credit decisions are made. This ensures financing is pursued only when it is realistic, well-positioned, and approached with the right level of preparation. Advisory support includes:
-
Readiness & Positioning
A structured first step to assess bankability, surface risks, and determine whether pursuing financing makes sense. -
Comprehensive Loan Packaging
Professional preparation and positioning of a financing request so it aligns with how banks underwrite and approve credit. -
Strategic Review of Terms
Final decision support once lender terms are received, helping you understand tradeoffs and long-term implications before committing.
Who CapReady Is - and Isn't - For
â For You If:
- You own or operate an established small business
- You're planning for working capital, a major purchase, or refinance
- You want to improve approval odds and loan terms

đ« Not a fit if:

- You're not willing to share, clean up, or improve your financials
- You're still in the idea stage with no operating history
- You're unwilling to adjust expectations based on lender realityÂ
