About
Most financing sites lead with the one thing they sell. Beacon places three, which means our only job is matching you to whichever actually serves your business.
Our story
Too many owners get sold a product because it's what the lender on the phone happened to offer — not because it fit.
Beacon was founded to be the opposite: an advisory that holds SBA loans, lines of credit, and working capital side by side and recommends honestly. We make our money the same way whether you take a line or an SBA loan, so the incentive is simply to get it right and get it closed.
By the numbers
The team
Generalists by design — fluent across SBA, lines, and working capital, so the recommendation isn't biased by what one desk happens to sell.
