Frostdale Advances, a small-business funding service in Monroe, Louisiana, publishes three checklists for local owners, covering occupational licenses, Louisiana sales tax registration with Ouachita Parish, LA, and zoning and building permits, plus a $100K business loan payment calculator. The checklists explain which records to keep current before a funding request; they are not legal advice.
Occupational licenses in Monroe, LA and Ouachita Parish, LA
Which local license records apply depends on where the business actually sits: inside Monroe, LA, inside West Monroe, LA, or elsewhere in the parish. The occupational license checklist shows how to work that out and which papers to have ready.
Louisiana sales tax registration for sellers
Shops, restaurants and anyone reselling goods should have their state and parish sales tax accounts in order before applying for inventory funding. The sales tax registration checklist lists the records partners usually ask about.
Zoning and permits before a Monroe, LA lease
Restaurants and stores taking new space need to know the use is allowed and what permits a build-out needs before they sign. The zoning and building permit checklist is written for that moment.
What a $100K loan payment looks like
Enter an amount, a rate you want to test and a term, and the $100K business loan payment calculator returns the monthly payment, the total interest and the total repaid.
Articles and walk-throughs
Longer practical pieces on down payments, dental cash flow projections, chiropractic working capital and pharmacy equipment are on the Frostdale blog.
