Discover how Canadian small businesses can access quick, reliable funding solutions to fuel growth and stay competitive.

Owning your own business is exciting. Being your own boss, helping grow your community, and contributing to Canada’s economic growth is something to be proud of. But like anything that’s worthwhile, being the owner of a small- or medium-sized business (SMB) can be challenging. There are unexpected expenses and cash-flow gaps. Taking your business to the next level and doing what it takes to stay competitive requires money you may not have readily available.

Running a business in Canada means facing hurdles and navigating growth in unique ways. Seasonal inventory costs can be a financial strain, as are critical equipment upgrades. Cross-border supply chain volatility and political uncertainty are making things tougher than ever.

Fast, flexible funding

“Don’t let securing the funding you need now become a challenge. Advance Funds Network (AFN) works with Canadian SMBs in every industry, matching your business with the funding solution that suits you best. AFN also partners with financial brokers, business consultants, and payment processors who utilize our network to support their clients’ capital needs. We offer rapid, flexible, working capital options beyond what the bank can provide. AFN can deliver ‘Same-Day Funding’, so you don’t have to sit and wait and worry for weeks on end,” says Irving Betesh, Chief Revenue Officer at AFN.

For the last 18 years, we are committed to building long-term relationships, both with our SMB and our partners who trust AFN when their clients need reliable alternative funding solutions. We provide access to the largest business loan referral network in Canada and the U.S.,” adds Betesh.

What are some of the biggest financial challenges Canadian SMBs face today and how can Advance Funds Network help them stay resilient?

“The main problem stems from insufficient banking alternatives beyond the “Big Five.” The two main obstacles that businesses encounter stem from the “slow churn” process which extends funding acquisition time, and the inability to obtain flexible funding when credit scores are poor or when businesses need urgent recapitalization. Advance Funds Network enables SMB success through its ability to provide same-day capital which enables fast action and immediate opportunity capture.”

AFN has built a name around fast, flexible solutions. How does your model empower business owners differently than traditional banking options?

“Our model liberates owners from cumbersome antiquated bank procedures. The big five typically require business owners to submit previous years’ T-Slips along with detailed financial documents for approval. Our process relies on credit information and six months of banking records to determine a company’s eligibility. Our fast approval process enables the potential for same-day funds delivery for qualified businesses.”

After 18 years in business, Advance Funds Network has cultivated deep partnerships and local expertise. How does this long-term relationship model strengthen your impact on Canadian entrepreneurs today?

“With nearly 2 decades of experience under our belt, we’ve got that invaluable local expertise that Canadian entrepreneurs need.  We reject the “cookie-cutter” approach, and tailor the offerings based on what’s genuinely best for the business. These customized solutions help businesses pivot, control expenses and proactively diversify their operations.  We see ourselves as a reliable partner, not just a transactional model.”
