I'm cooking up 26 00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:29,399 Speaker 1: stuff here, cooking up money, ideas and everything. But it's 27 00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:32,560 Speaker 1: really funny, Katrina.

A lot of people still follow me 29 00:01:35,040 --> 00:01:37,920 Speaker 1: because I cook all those good things. And it's been 30 00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:41,560 Speaker 1: very fortunate to have that kind of a well rounded career. Now, 31 00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:45,360 Speaker 1: money making conversation, let's start up right here. I get 32 00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:47,680 Speaker 1: a lot of texts, I get a lot of emails 33 00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:50,240 Speaker 1: by people talking about they looked up my credit, they 34 00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:54,040 Speaker 1: looked me on LinkedIn. They can give me fifty thousand 35 00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:56,280 Speaker 1: dollars and give me sixty five thousand dollars. It's give 36 00:01:56,320 --> 00:02:00,560 Speaker 1: me a call. And what is a scam and what 37 00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:04,200 Speaker 1: you should be on the lookout when people start sending 38 00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:09,799 Speaker 1: these texts, start sending these emails engaging potential business people 39 00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:12,440 Speaker 1: who want that big break, who need just a little 40 00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:15,840 Speaker 1: money to jumpstart their dreams. Talk to us about those 41 00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:18,480 Speaker 1: emails that I be getting and I'm sure a lot 42 00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:19,680 Speaker 1: of people out there get to. 43 00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:24,400 Speaker 2: Yes, ra Sean, this is a really good question because 44 00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:29,440 Speaker 2: oftentimes we get hung up on these what ninety second 45 00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:34,600 Speaker 2: ig takes and these shorts and all of these conversations 46 00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:39,400 Speaker 2: and our emails are being flooded now because obviously there 47 00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:44,840 Speaker 2: is funding now that is available for startups and essentially 48 00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:50,240 Speaker 2: you have to qualify. Oftentimes, when we are seeing this, 49 00:02:50,440 --> 00:02:54,720 Speaker 2: we're not actually talking about what the requirements are. And 50 00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:57,320 Speaker 2: so to make it really frank, because this is what 51 00:02:57,400 --> 00:03:00,320 Speaker 2: I do every day, and that is this, how do 52 00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:05,640 Speaker 2: you qualify? If you have a six point eighty credit 53 00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:12,600 Speaker 2: score or higher, you have at least four figures in 54 00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:16,400 Speaker 2: a credit card already, right, you need to have at 55 00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:21,680 Speaker 2: least ten thousand credit card already, Okay, and you have 56 00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:28,720 Speaker 2: a business that has a mission to make money and 57 00:03:28,919 --> 00:03:34,760 Speaker 2: your risk is low. This is the answer to that question. 58 00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:38,360 Speaker 2: So what that means is that, yes, if you take 59 00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:42,360 Speaker 2: the clickbake or you make the call, the first thing 60 00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:44,240 Speaker 2: that's going to happen is that we're going to have 61 00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:47,720 Speaker 2: a conversation with you first to find out is your 62 00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:50,640 Speaker 2: money mindset right, because we don't want to be out 63 00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:53,640 Speaker 2: here racking up the good debt and then you're not 64 00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:57,240 Speaker 2: going to be responsible. That's number one, right, Are you 65 00:03:57,360 --> 00:04:00,720 Speaker 2: ready to actually execute on the mo so that you 66 00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:04,240 Speaker 2: can get a cash on cash return is what we 67 00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:08,080 Speaker 2: call it, and so you're able to deploy that money 68 00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:10,400 Speaker 2: properly to be able to pay the money back. 69 00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:14,360 Speaker 1: So the bigger picture, though, Katrina, is that these are 70 00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:18,240 Speaker 1: unknown people contacting you, right, and so that means in 71 00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:22,280 Speaker 1: order to even go beyond, you got to share information 72 00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:27,760 Speaker 1: with them that can in turn enable people to scam you. 73 00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:31,360 Speaker 1: That's the bigger issue here because you get it all 74 00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:34,240 Speaker 1: the time. I get it from Chase, I get it 75 00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:37,040 Speaker 1: from America Express. They'll tell you, hey, look you got 76 00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:40,239 Speaker 1: a credit card here, sign here. But that's a brand 77 00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:44,000 Speaker 1: that we know is legit. But there's so many companies 78 00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:47,159 Speaker 1: out there now they're just ramming you, ramming you're ramming 79 00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:52,320 Speaker 1: your information and bargain opportunities. That scam side is very high. 80 00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:55,960 Speaker 1: Not so much about the qualifying side, but that scam side. 81 00:04:56,360 --> 00:04:58,320 Speaker 1: That's the part that I really want to drive home 82 00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:03,240 Speaker 1: to everybody is a really really research and if there 83 00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:05,960 Speaker 1: are any websites that they can go to the unions 84 00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:07,800 Speaker 1: please yes, that. 85 00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:11,800 Speaker 2: Is exactly a really good, really good question.

Welcome back to Money Making Conversation 107 00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:38,479 Speaker 1: master Class hosted by me, Rashawn McDonald. Let's get back 108 00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:41,880 Speaker 1: into it. What's the minimum somebody that needs to provide 109 00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:44,839 Speaker 1: to you in order to find out if they're qualified 110 00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:48,920 Speaker 1: when they come to your company New Day for You Financial. 111 00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:51,520 Speaker 2: Right, So if you go over right now to New 112 00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:57,480 Speaker 2: Day for You Financial dot Co. We have a pre 113 00:06:57,560 --> 00:07:01,760 Speaker 2: approval process. It's a soft pull process. We have a 114 00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:05,760 Speaker 2: relationship with Equifax where we can do a soft pool 115 00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:09,720 Speaker 2: and we're able to see whether you can qualify or 116 00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:12,680 Speaker 2: not just by looking at the information that is available. 117 00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:16,200 Speaker 2: Once we pre qualify you and get you pre approved, 118 00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:19,520 Speaker 2: the next step is that we're going to have a 119 00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:22,720 Speaker 2: conversation with you to make sure that you're able to 120 00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:25,160 Speaker 2: pay the money back. You have a plan for the money. 121 00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:29,600 Speaker 2: And this is for startups only, obviously, if you're wanted 122 00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:31,920 Speaker 2: to get you know, some of the six and seven 123 00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:36,800 Speaker 2: figure We do SBA loans, We do collateral loans with 124 00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:43,040 Speaker 2: equipment purchase orders. We do loans as well as lines 125 00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:46,080 Speaker 2: of credit. And so how we're able to do that 126 00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:49,360 Speaker 2: is because we have the relationships with the bank and 127 00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:53,320 Speaker 2: they are doing the underwriting for us to be able 128 00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:56,960 Speaker 2: to make that happen. And so this is the process. 129 00:07:56,760 --> 00:07:59,960 Speaker 1: We are talking about you though, Katrina, the business model, 130 00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:04,360 Speaker 1: the business plan. So many people you talked about the 131 00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:06,880 Speaker 1: credit report, but so many people coming to you with 132 00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:09,760 Speaker 1: this great idea to Katrina, but they don't have a 133 00:08:09,800 --> 00:08:13,640 Speaker 1: business plan. Will you tell my audience how you frown 134 00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:16,440 Speaker 1: on people who walk up to you without a business plan. 135 00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:21,280 Speaker 2: Oh my god, you just don't even know it is. 136 00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:26,280 Speaker 2: So many people think that it's free money, right, and 137 00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:29,920 Speaker 2: you just have an idea pie in the sky. You 138 00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:33,240 Speaker 2: had a dream last night and now you wanted your 139 00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:36,559 Speaker 2: money to be able to implement. You have to be strategic. 140 00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:41,120 Speaker 2: You have to put together a business plan step by 141 00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:44,800 Speaker 2: step on what you're going to deploy the money to do. 142 00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:49,080 Speaker 2: If you do not have a plan on what you're 143 00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:52,240 Speaker 2: going to do, I call it your money mission.

But also I'm giving 221 00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:14,880 Speaker 1: money to people that go don't worry about it. I 222 00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:17,000 Speaker 1: got you. Don't worry about It's a gift. I just 223 00:13:17,040 --> 00:13:19,560 Speaker 1: want to see you be successful. But what I would 224 00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:22,120 Speaker 1: just wanted to state in this conversation I was having 225 00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:27,520 Speaker 1: with Katrina here was that they're rules to being successful. 226 00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:31,200 Speaker 1: They are rules to borrow money. They're rules, and there's 227 00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:34,720 Speaker 1: so many people in the minority community, the community of color, 228 00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:38,600 Speaker 1: and I know it's difficult. I know our skin tone, 229 00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:41,959 Speaker 1: I know our background might hold us back. But when 230 00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:45,840 Speaker 1: you're trying to borrow money, there has to be rules. 231 00:13:45,960 --> 00:13:48,680 Speaker 1: It has to they had just because you want one 232 00:13:48,720 --> 00:13:51,640 Speaker 1: hundred thousand dollars. If they give you one hundred thousand 233 00:13:51,679 --> 00:13:54,480 Speaker 1: dollars and you don't have a business plan, then they 234 00:13:54,520 --> 00:13:56,840 Speaker 1: are the foods and they will be shut down. 235 00:13:57,360 --> 00:13:59,920 Speaker 2: There you go one hundred percent. If we have loans 236 00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:03,720 Speaker 2: that we give out and uh, they become bad loans. 237 00:14:03,840 --> 00:14:07,480 Speaker 2: That hurts my business. Right, So that's why we vet 238 00:14:07,520 --> 00:14:10,520 Speaker 2: our clients thoroughly and to make sure that they have 239 00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:13,439 Speaker 2: a plan in place. We can look at their history 240 00:14:13,520 --> 00:14:16,960 Speaker 2: to see what was the of they trustworthy? What are 241 00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:20,720 Speaker 2: their creditability to other people? Right, even with your family, 242 00:14:20,880 --> 00:14:23,920 Speaker 2: if you have other family members that said, hey, they 243 00:14:23,960 --> 00:14:26,640 Speaker 2: didn't pay me back, you have another family member they 244 00:14:26,680 --> 00:14:28,800 Speaker 2: didn't pay me back, So why you gonna line up 245 00:14:28,840 --> 00:14:31,000 Speaker 2: to get not paid back. So it's the same thing 246 00:14:31,080 --> 00:14:34,600 Speaker 2: with the pains. You know, they're gonna look at your credibility, 247 00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:37,840 Speaker 2: your history, your credit profile, what have your history been, 248 00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:40,720 Speaker 2: and so these other things that I've been seeing out 249 00:14:40,760 --> 00:14:43,360 Speaker 2: here is that you're saying, hey, business, we're gonna get 250 00:14:43,400 --> 00:14:46,200 Speaker 2: you business credit. And you think you're gonna get business 251 00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:49,920 Speaker 2: credit and they're not gonna look at your personal credit profile. Well, 252 00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:51,680 Speaker 2: they don't have nothing to go by it. They're not 253 00:14:51,720 --> 00:14:54,920 Speaker 2: gonna just give you credit if they don't even know 254 00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:56,120 Speaker 2: what your history is. 255 00:14:57,320 --> 00:14:59,400 Speaker 1: Oh, I love it. I love it. Katrina. We are 256 00:14:59,400 --> 00:15:02,760 Speaker 1: doing good. Okay, I'm talking to Katrina fitting she's the 257 00:15:02,880 --> 00:15:06,480 Speaker 1: CEO and CFO of New Day for You Financial. 258 00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:06,920 Speaker 2: Now. 259 00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:09,040 Speaker 1: When I opened the show. I want to get back 260 00:15:09,080 --> 00:15:11,960 Speaker 1: to this, I said, you are a national leader and 261 00:15:12,080 --> 00:15:17,240 Speaker 1: business funding solutions. Katrina helps women business owners secure one 262 00:15:17,320 --> 00:15:20,440 Speaker 1: hundred thousand dollars in funding in one hundred days or 263 00:15:20,520 --> 00:15:24,280 Speaker 1: less with same their approvals and next day funding. Tell 264 00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:26,200 Speaker 1: us how that works, right? 265 00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:30,520 Speaker 2: So, for example, my one of my clients, Angeline, she 266 00:15:30,960 --> 00:15:34,360 Speaker 2: is she's a tax accountant, she does taxes, she does 267 00:15:34,440 --> 00:15:37,920 Speaker 2: tax strategy and bookkeeping for her business. She came to 268 00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:41,280 Speaker 2: me she was like, Katrina, we are in need of 269 00:15:41,320 --> 00:15:45,000 Speaker 2: doing some rebranding for our business and I want to 270 00:15:45,080 --> 00:15:47,440 Speaker 2: get a minimum of one hundred K to be able 271 00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:50,960 Speaker 2: to deploy this to you know, get some additional help 272 00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:54,800 Speaker 2: and team. And so that's what we did. We did 273 00:15:54,880 --> 00:15:58,600 Speaker 2: a credit analysis on her. We saw that she had 274 00:15:58,760 --> 00:16:02,400 Speaker 2: good credibility. It was very trustworthy, she paid her bills 275 00:16:02,440 --> 00:16:05,720 Speaker 2: on time, and she had a business that was already 276 00:16:05,760 --> 00:16:09,520 Speaker 2: making revenue. So if we already knew pre approval, we're 277 00:16:09,560 --> 00:16:13,040 Speaker 2: able to get her the money that she requested. We 278 00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:16,040 Speaker 2: went through the process of asking her what is your 279 00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:18,120 Speaker 2: business plan, what are you going to do with it? 280 00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:23,160 Speaker 2: Once we applied, we went through underwriting.
