The CEO team met with Neal Stimpert, CEO, and Shellie Reed, Credit Officer, of Atlanta National Bank to discuss small business loans. As a small-town bank, Atlanta National takes pride in building relationships with customers, emphasizing the need for clear communication with your banker.
They highlighted the importance of building credit, researching, and creating a strong business plan ahead of time. Being transparent about personal finances, explaining any credit report issues, and providing realistic projections will help lenders assess how much you need to start and run your business. As always, we are grateful for the bank’s ongoing support as an investor in our program and the community’s future!! Thank you! #lincolndailynews #llceo #logancountyillinois #ll_ceo #miehq #youngentrepreneurs
