Every Growing Business Needs Financing
Your business clients periodically need financing: lines of credit, term loans, equipment financing, or SBA loans. Each application requires financial statement analysis, projections, and supporting documentation. Clients often come to you at the last minute asking for help.
What AI Automates
Financial ratio calculations (liquidity, leverage, coverage, profitability). Trend analysis over three to five years. Cash flow projections based on historical patterns and client-provided growth assumptions. Comparison to industry benchmarks. Report generation in formats that lenders expect.
The Advisory Angle
The analysis often reveals issues that could affect the loan application: thin margins, high leverage, inconsistent cash flow. Identifying these before the lender does gives you the opportunity to help the client address them or at least prepare an explanation.
Offering It as a Service
When the analysis is automated, it becomes efficient enough to offer as a standard service rather than a special project. Package it as part of your advisory offering and price it based on the value to the client rather than the reduced hours it now takes.
