what's going on YouTube family it's your
boy Mike the businessman all right so
today I'm actually in the warehouse
today
um so yeah I just kind of wanted to
share a few things about the buying
process right a lot of you guys uh sent
me DMS saying that you guys are having a
hard time qualifying to get some of
these cars
um so I just kind of want to break that
down to you guys right like how your
credit profile needs to look to be able
to qualify for some of these cars okay
um especially starting off right I mean
if you want to start off with economy
cars or you're going to luxury or you
want to do a big dog style you want cars
like these guys over here you know then
you know I'm a kind of break down the
process what you guys need to do
um so let's let's start with let's say
your your credit profile right so at the
end of the day your personal credit is
King right so you need to build that up
and then once you've built it up you
don't touch it no more okay every most
most millionaires don't ever touch their
personal credit okay so they build it up
get it over a 700 and then everything
starts to go on your business credit
including your cars okay
um so personal credit right there's a
few things that matter with personal
credit all right
um there's a number of derogatories you
have on there you got to make sure you
have zero derogatories on your credit
your personal credit you got to clean it
up Credit Repair actually works you guys
should find a good credit repair company
um and they actually work and they can
take some of those things off
um age of credit is very important too
you want to have at least five years or
more that's how you deal okay that's a
sweet spot
um if you find that maybe you have less
than that as a hack for that you can
actually get what they call a trade line
okay you get a primary trade line and
many companies out there and I know the
credit repair companies out there gonna
hate me but go to tradelinesupply.com
and that's where most of them get it
from you actually go to
tradelinesupply.com and you guys can
actually get yourselves um trade lines
on there so if some of these cars offer
your for your credit basically what a
trade line is is basically somebody will
add you on their card as an authorized
user so basically these companies will
sell you a trade line so it's a credit
card and you get added as an authorized
user and then you inherit all the good
credit history of the person that owns
that credit card okay that's one way to
do it okay another way to do it is
actually to get your own trade lines I
like a company called credit strong you
go to creditstrong.com they have the
Magnum product
and with the Magnum product you can get
a credit a credit a line of credit put
on your credit report
um Sean said five thousand ten thousand
fifteen thousand and you know and
they'll give you some age to it so
imagine having something like that on
your credit report right that that'll
that'll definitely boost your score up
so age of credit very important all
right so another thing too is your
utilization that's a very big factor in
your credit reports um so if you pull up
your credit karma you'd see on there
your utilization and that's where a lot
of you guys get wrecked you might not
necessarily have bad credit but the
problem is the little credit that you do
have you guys are maxing it out so say
you have a thousand dollar credit card
and then you're running it up to 800 900
you know you're thinking well that's not
much well guess what it's almost like
say you have a thousand dollar card and
you run it up by 800 you've used eighty
percent of your available credit and
they don't like that matter of fact to
have good credit you want to have your
utilization some say less than 30 but if
you really really want to be able to
apply for anything I'd say less than 10
okay I'll say and get it less than 10 so
going back to that example you have a
thousand dollar card do not use more
than a hundred dollars on that card and
when you use it you pay it off at the
end of before the statement closes at
the end of the month okay that's the way
you boost your score up some of you guys
that's all you have to do is just pay
down some of those cards you have
um and that will boost your score up you
want to be 680 or above the sweet spot
is 700 and up you're golden once you're
700 and up you've got some age maybe
you've thrown a trade line on there say
you know your mama your mama's got good
credit she's got this credit card she's
had since she was a 18 19 20 years old
so it's got like almost 30 40 years of
age of credit age have her throw you on
there as an authorized user as long as
your mama pays her bills right okay so
she's got to be paying her bills
properly and then she can throw you on
her card and then that way you guys
could leverage um her credit profile
okay
um so once you've done all of that your
personal credit should start looking a
whole lot stronger now what you guys
want to do now is start focusing on your
business credit okay so I'm hoping but
you guys gonna go get it and go get an
LLC get your LLC Incorporated um a
service I like to use is called Inc file
i-n-c-file incfile.com you go in there
they're pretty quick you get that set up
in no time
um should take about a week or less and
get your LLC set up and then now um you
want to go ahead and start establishing
business credit so you want to go to a
website called uh dun and Bradstreet
okay so don andbraststreet.com I think
it's dnb.com
um just Google it done in Bradstreet
right go there and you want to go get a
done and Bradstreet number it's free
don't pay nothing they have all these
packages they try to sell you guys don't
pay for none of that get your done and
Bradstreet number
um then once you get that the quickest
way to generate um your business credit
score what they call a paydex score is
um you want to also get an app it's an
app out there called nav like Navigator
and navigation nav.com go get use ad go
get nfv.com the app will go to the
website sign up for it
um and the beauty of nav is what nav is
is kind of like a Credit Karma app but
it's for your business credit so you can
keep tabs in your business credit you
can see your business credit score okay
so once you have nav
um you subscribe for them you have to
pay for this service all right I think
it's like 20 bucks a month but the
beauty is so it gives you access to your
business credit report but here's the
Bar Naval also every time you're paying
that twenty dollars a month now we'll
report that to your business credit
profile so also and the beauty of it
just signing up for nav it'll automatic
automatically generate a paydex score
for you so now you've got your first
business credit score okay uh with
business credit there's a paid X score
there's an experience score and then
there's an Equifax score okay
um so now you've gotten your paid export
generated right because you signed up
for nav.com now to beef up your profile
um I'm going to describe this in two
ways right so people that already have
good personal credit your personal
credit is A1
um you're just not sure of the business
credit you guys are good you can now
start going to apply for business credit
cards and all of that stuff you're good
because at the end of the day they're
going to base their decision on your
personal credit all right you're going
to be personally guaranteeing any
business uh business credit cards or
business lines or credit that they give
your business loans okay based off of
your personal credit right so that's
that's for people that already have
strong credit scores are you over 700
already you're good at this point just
go ahead and start applying for some
stuff
um however if your personal credit is a
little weak and you're probably going to
get declined when you try to apply for a
lot of these uh uh business products or
going to go get some cars under your
business name so what you need to do is
now build up your business credit
profile and to do that now you guys need
to start going down what they call
Vendor accounts okay you need to go get
vendor accounts on your business credit
okay Home Depot
Lowes amazon.com
um Floor and Decor
um there's a bunch of these stores out
there they give Best Buy they all get
Staples they give um
they have their their credit cards or um
and or what they call Net 30 accounts
right so basically you you buy an item
today and you have to pay back 30 days
later that's why it's called net 30.
there's net 60 so buy today payback
within 60 days so to extend a line of
credit to you basically all right to
your LLC okay so with the net 30
accounts you're able to build up your
business credit now um there's several
companies out there there's uline.com
there's grainger.com there's a ton of
them out there and basically these
vendor accounts what they do is
um they they issue they'll sell you a
product
um with a promise to pay in 30 days or
60 days and if you do pay on time they
will report to your business credit
profile okay so now you're Equifax and
your business experience course starts
going up okay depending on which one
they report to so that's the way the
game works so then this is mostly this
route the vendor account route is mostly
for people that don't have good pressure
and personal credit I personally I
didn't go through all of that my
personal credit was already good so I
was ready to start shooting my shot I
went straight to start getting my LLC
was new it was barely three months old
old and I just went and started getting
um business credit cards and then
getting my cars okay because my personal
credit was already good I already fixed
that and it met all the right data
points okay so um if yours if your
personal credit is not good then yes you
got to go down the vendor account route
because you you want to make the you
want the banks to base their decision
mostly on your business credit okay if
they see your personals a little weak
but then your business credit is strong
they'll be more willing to give you uh
credit so but that's the way you start
to build up your LLC to where now you
can now walk into these dealerships and
then you can try to start getting cars
nice cars fancy cars like some of these
guys over here you know you start
getting cars like that
um you might not be able to just jump
straight to getting these types of cars
but your chances are a whole lot better
of walking into say your Toyota Honda
um Audi BMW all of that and getting you
start off you start off small right if
you've never had a car note before in
your life you're gonna have to start off
small maybe 20 something thousand
dollars or less you get approved with
them under your LLC this LLC that you've
already built up and this whole process
might take you about three months if
you're going through the vendor account
process it might take about three months
three four months or maybe a little
longer six months at Max
um now you can walk into these
dealerships with your LLC and they
should be able to give you a nice car
you go get a walk-in or walk out with a
Toyota Camry a brand new Toyota Camry
strictly on your business credit it
won't report to personal okay
um another thing too is when you guys
are filling out these business
applications at the car dealerships make
sure you're not co-signing for the loan
okay A lot of times they'll try to trick
you into doing that they'll make you
co-signed a loan basically if you
co-sign it still appears on your
personal credit report okay you want to
only personally guaranteed a loan okay
which means if you default on the loan
they can go after your personal credit
they'll report it to your personal
credit okay um you don't when you
co-sign it's going to show up on your
business credit and your personal credit
you don't want that okay um so go with
companies that won't do that so I know
um I know uh uh Toyota Ford
Mercedes-Benz BMW
um Ally
um they'll put them they'll put the cars
on your business credit for you and and
just make sure they don't tick the box
that says co-signing okay if you do all
of that um starting off you'll be
straight so like I said you start off
with the car like 25 000 once you pay on
that for at least three to six months
you cannot up to a car that's about
fifty thousand this is called the ladder
of Ascension so you're going from thirty
thousand and you're going to work your
way up to double that so the next time
you go for a car they'll approve you for
double the previous Cardinal so you got
approved for 20 something thousand the
first time the second time you go
they'll give you double that maybe 45 50
000 then they'll give you 75 80 90 000
then you can step into the big boys you
start getting cars that cost a hundred
thousand or more now you're in the
you're in the big leagues now okay so I
hope this video helped you guys out I
just wanted to make it real quick thank
