The Need to Re-Think Small Business Funding

Why Helpful+ ?

Capitalized companies are more likely to succeed.

Helpful+ believes in the entrepreneurial spirit of America and is not willing to sit idly by in these troubled times, while business owners are in desperate need of capital. While the CARES Act did a lot for big businesses, it was noticeably patchy in its support of small and medium businesses. We support the funders who are instrumental in fueling America's growth engine. We expect these companies, which are the bedrock of our economy, to experience renewed growth.

Why Alternative Funding?

According to the CEO of Next Street, there is an $87 billion gap in financing for small businesses. Despite governmental efforts, this gap has only been growing. In the face of record low interest rates, banks are still reticent to fund many small businesses due in part to the lower profitability mandated by Dodd-Frank. Helpful+ supports a variety of Alternative Funding sources which allow for rapid, event-driven capitalization so that businesses can leverage opportunities as they arise. Helpful+ further invests in non-dilutive funding options allowing companies to retain full managerial control and keep their hard earned long term profits.
