Lisa;

That is Wonderful News! I am so happy for you.

Good for you for having a long-term relationship with one bank. That increases your chances quite a bit when trying to obtain a loan. I am glad you went back to them to work things out.

Going to another bank typically doesn't help much unless you have some sort of long-term relationship with someone there.

I like the idea of writing a paper on your experience. At some point you can write an e-book on your experience in starting up a business and sell it thru an affiliate program or something. Just a thought!

Best of Luck to you! Please keep us posted on your progress.
