When I started out, I thought the only way to grow was to use my own money. But here’s the truth: if you want to grow faster, you need to learn how to use other people’s money and manage it wisely so you never default.

That’s exactly why I built out the Fire Alarm Business Blueprint. One of the steps inside is all about funding: how to build up your personal credit, establish business credit, and then use financing strategically so you can scale without drowning in debt.

There are dozens of ways to get money into your business:

Credit card stacking, where you apply for multiple cards from different banks and bureaus (sometimes $5K–$25K each).

Walking into a branch to request higher limits.

Microloans, no-doc loans, merchant cash advances, lines of credit, and more.

The trick isn’t just getting the money. The real skill is using that money to make more money enough to pay it back and still come out ahead. That cycle, done correctly, is what fuels exponential growth.

I learned this the hard way. Back in my early days with Fire Control and later with Secure It Securities Corp, I had to guarantee loans personally because the business had no credit history of its own. That’s normal. Every entrepreneur starts there. Over time, your company builds its own credit profile but at the beginning, it’s on you.

And yes, you qualify for funding the moment you start your business. There are tiered programs (Tier 1–4) designed to help you move up step by step. Even if your personal credit is low, there are workarounds to help you get at least a small amount of funding to put into play.

I’ve used these same strategies to build Secure It Securities into a company that’s done over $5 million in fire alarm and security installations across government, private, and commercial projects. And I want to show you how to do it too.
