Financing for this trade

Design firms usually need working capital more than equipment: a business line of credit to fund furniture and fixture deposits before client payments land, a business credit card for trade purchases, and SBA 7(a) loans to buy a practice or open a studio. Lenders look at client deposit practices, project concentration, and seasonality tied to housing and commercial construction.
