1. **Purpose of Loan:** Clearly define why you need the loan (e.g., working capital, equipment, expansion) to choose the right type of financing.
2. **Loan Type:** Research different types of business loans (term loans, lines of credit, SBA loans, merchant cash advances) to find the best fit.
3. **Credit Score:** Your personal and business credit scores will significantly impact the interest rate and approval chances.
4. **Collateral:** Some loans require collateral (assets pledged as security). Understand the risks involved.
5. **Fees:** Beyond interest, look out for origination fees, closing costs, prepayment penalties, and other charges that affect the true cost of the loan.
6. **Repayment Ability:** Ensure your business cash flow can comfortably support the monthly loan payments.
