I show startups how to turn credit into business capital so they can grow without giving up ownership.
I founded Acquire Funding after a simple realization: most entrepreneurs are never taught how business funding actually works. They're told to grind, bootstrap, or gamble on unproven ideas—while the wealthiest founders use structured capital to acquire what's already working.
That difference isn't effort. It's understanding the system. I've now worked with 2100+ entrepreneurs to unlock more than $130 million in business funding for growth, acquisitions, and new ventures.
What I Do
I work with startups to build fundable profiles, secure approvals, and create a capital foundation they can use repeatedly as they grow.
Most founders start with 0% interest business credit, but the real advantage comes from understanding structure, timing, and how lenders evaluate risk—before you apply.
The goal isn't just approval. It's avoiding mistakes that cost time, limit options or close doors you'll need later.
Most funding problems aren’t caused by bad ideas or lack of effort. They come from applying blindly, using the wrong structure, or misunderstanding how banks and lenders think.
Once you know how approvals really work, funding becomes a process—not a guessing game.
That’s why learning the system early matters.
