Credit Improvement Plan

Get a personalized set of credit-building steps you can track as you complete them.

  1. 01Build A Credible Business Foundation

    • An LLC or corporation, in good standing with the Secretary of State.

    • It's free, and it's how lenders and bureaus identify your business.

    • Lenders often decline P.O. boxes. Keep the address consistent everywhere.

    • List it consistently with your business name and address.

    • An email on your own domain and a simple site build credibility.

    • Run all business income and expenses through it.

  2. 02Establish Business Credit

    • Dun & Bradstreet uses it to build your business credit file.

    • Helps verify that your business is real and active.

    • Choose suppliers that report payments to business credit bureaus, then pay early.

    • Payment history drives business credit scores.

  3. 03Strengthen Your Personal Credit

    • Check Equifax, Experian and TransUnion for errors and old accounts.

    • Lower balances relative to limits generally help your score.

    • You have the right to dispute errors. A credit repair service can handle it for you.
