Since its inception, 2M7 has been dedicated to providing small business owners in Canada with a simpler and faster borrowing solution – providing the cashflow they need to run and grow their operations, even if they don’t qualify for traditional business loans.“

It’s getting exponentially harder for small business owners to qualify for loans from banks and other financial institutions, so 2M7 strives to provide the fastest and least complicated alternative to help support our Canadian entrepreneurs,” said Avi Bernstein, CEO of 2M7 Financial Solutions. “We believe it’s more important than ever to help small Canadian businesses grow, and our team is excited to take part in this year’s summit to meet the small business owners who are the true backbone of our economy.”

2M7 has helped thousands of businesses get funding to hire staff, buy inventory, repair equipment, expand to new locations, and more. Designed specifically for Canadian small business owners, 2M7’s merchant cash advance solution gets companies the funding they need – faster. Based around simple terms and flexible repayment structures, small businesses can easily get the cashflow they need, while having peace of mind that repayments are based on their month-to-month sales performance. Unlike banks, 2M7 provides its clients with fast funding, depositing funds directly into their bank accounts within 24-48 hours to invest almost immediately in their operations, however they see fit.“

In this fast-paced era, 2M7 has been proudly helping Canadian companies bring their businesses online to establish a global reach, as well as financing the digitalization of their processes in order to streamline operations, so our team is excited for this year’s summit theme of Embracing Digital Disruption,” said Avi. “With an increasingly competitive business landscape, and the ease of accessibility to a global market, we’re proud to give small businesses the competitive edge to grow even faster.”

People are working harder than ever. Chances are, you have put in some long hours at your job. While this is admirable, it is also important to make sure that you have a proper work-life balance. Here’s a look at the top benefits of properly balancing your life at the office and at home.

1) Reduces stress

‍According to a recent survey, due to Covid-19, the majority of the Canadians feel stressed during the day. With stress comes adverse effects to the body and the mind. Lots of that stress comes from fixation with work. Therefore, it is important to take your mind and your body away from the workplace to allow yourself time to depressurize from your daily responsibilities.

2) Prevents burnout

‍More and more people are switching careers. One of the reasons why people will leave a career after a few years is because of burnout. Therefore, it is important for people to have a chance to relax and not have to grind all the time at their job. By preventing burnout, you can continue on your career and potentially reach new heights at your job.

3) Ensures physical well being

‍No matter what your age, it is important to stay physically active. For those who work in an office for 12 hours a day, it is hard to get the physical activity needed to stay healthy. Thence, it is important for you to get out of the office, go for a walk or do some simple exercises to get the blood flowing and properly maintain your body. By staying physically active, you can lower your blood pressure, maintain a proper weight and prevent atrophy of your muscles.

4) It increases productivity

‍When you have a proper work-life-balance, you are able to get more things done. That’s because you will be refreshed and comfortable at your job which can lead to better productivity. It’s a good idea to give yourself at least 12 hours of free time between workdays to allow you to recharge and have full focus at your job.

5) Allows you to enjoy life

‍It’s important that you take the time to enjoy your life. After all, you will not look back on your life and regent not taking that extra business meeting. When you take the time to enjoy life, it will give you the energy to be more productive at your job. Be sure to give yourself time to take a vacation every now and then to feel better.

You’ve done your research, and you’re convinced a merchant cash advance is a great opportunity for your business. You can get a flexible funding solution to help you cover essential business costs or even expansion. Better yet, you can quickly access the funds you need with flexible repayment terms. So, how do you get an MCA? Follow these steps and you’ll have the funding you need in no time.

Research Providers

Doing research should be your first step. There are plenty of lenders offering MCAs, but not all of them are created equal. Many of them do business online. This makes it easy to find information about where they operate and the kinds of businesses they support. Some specialize in working with small businesses, while others prefer working with large businesses. Some may have expertise in your industry. Always look for a provider who is upfront about their MCA program. Check customer reviews and testimonials. What do other business owners say about this lender?

Submit an Application

Once you’ve decided on a provider, it’s time to prepare your MCA application. Always review the lender’s specific requirements. The more complete and accurate your application, the faster the lender can approve you. You’ll need to provide:

• Government-issued ID, to prove your identity
• Your merchant ID number
• Recent bank statements
• A void cheque

Your merchant ID number allows the lender to check on your merchant account, giving them accurate information on your monthly sales. Your recent bank statements can also provide this information, as well as crucial information about cash flows. You’ll also need to provide a bank account number for your business. The business bank account is where your merchant cash advance will be deposited.

The Approval Process

The lender will approve your application within two business days. If your application is complete and accurate, the funds may arrive on within the same day. Always check what the lender will provide. Some lenders will offer up to 125 percent of your monthly sales. Next, they’ll send you an agreement. Read this over carefully, since it contains information about your repayment schedule, fees, and more. Some lenders post their general terms, including rates and fees, online. You can review them before you apply. If you’re unsure about the lender’s offer, don’t be afraid to contact them. For example, if you were hoping for more funds than they offered, you can discuss their rationale with them. Once you’re satisfied with the lender’s terms, your funds will be transferred to your bank account.

How Repayment Works

Your merchant cash advance provider should get in touch with your payments processor. They’ll set up direct deductions, which means repayment of your advance happens automatically. You can keep track of payments through your account with the provider. This makes the process perfectly transparent, and you’ll always know where you stand.
