Funding refers to the ability to leverage personal and business credit to obtain capital. In other
words, it allows you to access the money you need without having to save it, earn it through extra work,
or borrow from family and friends. Essentially, it’s the practice of using other people’s money (OPM) to
grow your business or achieve financial goals.

The credit loop is a strategy for continuous funding. It involves securing credit (like high-limit cards), using the capital, and then strategically paying it down to maintain a strong credit profile for repeated access to financing.
To sustain the loop, a low credit utilization rate (ideally under $10\%$) is critical. This signals responsible borrowing, allowing the business to qualify for higher limits and new credit products to keep the funding cycle going.
The foundation of the credit loop is proper business structuring and optimization. This includes correct entity formation (e.g., LLC) and building independent business credit to ensure the company is viewed as a low-risk borrower.
