How BLB Students Make Profit On D&B Listings

Here at BusinessLendingBlueprint we teach our students how to make money as a business loan broker. There are several key reasons why D&B listings prove lucrative to our students.

A company with a D&B profile is easier to evaluate. Loan brokers can quickly see whether that company will have an easier time or a harder time acquiring funding that they need.
If a company is in need of a D&B number, then our students can help them get one, or skip the process entirely in favor of getting them funds faster.

Furthermore, many of our students learn how to replace their jobs making 6-7 figures a year through our course. We aren’t in the business of teaching useless information that you can’t capitalize on. It wastes everyone’s time if our students aren’t seeing results quickly.

Which is why we’re happy to report that most of our students see results in their first 30-60 days after enrolling!

How BLB Stays Relevant

New policies and laws are constantly taking affect. Many companies aren’t keeping up. The following are ever changing, and our business model stays updated regularly:

Our business model doesn’t need a website. (You don’t need a web designer or webmaster to setup your business)
Marketing is shifting from static outreach to personalized offers. We teach our students how to use free methods and paid methods to gain the clients they need.
Everything we teach is legal. We make sure to only teach you what is up-to-date.
Many people fear they will have to work from home sooner than later, which is why everything we teach can be done from the comfort of your own home!
Company credit scores vary, and their eligibility does too. That’s why we teach more than one lending method.
Getting paid once is nice, but we also teach our students how to structure the lending process for residual income.

If it wasn’t already clear, we are 100% dedicated to your success. Our students come out of our course understanding how to make profit on the most popular product ever: Money.

How Does The Lending Process Work?

Depending on the situation and client, many of our students following the flowchart that we have designed. The flowchart helps them do the following:

Quickly decide which lending option is suitable for the client. (And see what they qualify for) This means our students spend less time evaluating and more time making money!
See which lenders offer the best terms.
Every business must be structured on demand. That’s why all of our students love essentially selling money. Every company needs money, and our loan brokers help companies get it.

Normally, when a company need working capital or a means to do whatever they need to, they go to a bank. But banks are now much harder to qualify for, and online lending has a significantly higher approval chance!
