Thanks for everyone's insight...

I have tried traditional sources and don't think I'm going to get a bank on board.

I don't want to factor (expensive and negative image to clients) and I probably don't want to give up equity. (Would consider under the right circumstances but I would hesitate to give up a lot for short term cash...)

The company is profitable and I have a solid book of contracted business. The challenge is that the business (6 years old) was a single owner until I joined last year and she only did about 300/400k year, last year we did 2.9 and we will double that this year.

Generally we do fine with Cash flow but I just finished a slow paying huge project and have two more large projects rolling.

Ultimately, I just need an LOC to help finance large projects on the front end but that seems to be hard to come by...

Work with your suppliers. If you share numbers they might offer better terms.

After another year or two that LOC should be easy to get. I operated for five years at a moderate growth rate before I took the plunge.
