Online, January 20, 2012 (Newswire.com) - Charles H. Green, Executive Director of Atlanta-based Small Business Finance Institute, recently announced the featured session for the 2nd "Stepping Up To Business" conference will be a program called "Thinking Outside the Bank." The conference, a 1-day event for small business owners to learn better strategies to manage their finances and find new capital resources, will be held February 29, 2012 in downtown Atlanta.
"Our conference is quickly gaining attention in the funding community as a preferred place to connect to business owners about finance," said Green. "Rolling out new ideas, funding channels, and products will define the growth of this event in the years ahead."
The new featured session will be a panel discussion presented during lunch that will focus on new financing sources that offer alternatives to the traditional "bank-reviews-financial-statement-and-credit-report" obstacles.
Featured presenters will discuss:
• NowAccount.com, new "merchant credit account" approach to finance working capital;
• IOU Central, a lender that analyzes business client's YELP rankings and customer comments to underwrite stability over relying solely on historical financials.
• The Receivables Exchange, a company with "eBay-approach" to factoring receivables;
• Consultant Financing, provider of financing for a consultant's book of business;
Stepping Up To Business, a one-day event for small business owners to learn better strategies to manage their finances and find new capital, will be held at The Loudermilk Center, 40 Courtland Street, Atlanta GA 30303, Wednesday February 29, 2012 8:00 a.m. - 7:30 p.m.
