Business Banking & Credit Lines: Financial Infrastructure Setup
Your business needs separate financial infrastructure. Learn how to set up business banking, credit lines, payment processing, and accounting systems from day one.
Commingling personal and business finances is the #1 mistake new entrepreneurs make. It creates an accounting nightmare, makes tax preparation hell, and can pierce the corporate veil, eliminating the liability protection you formed your LLC to achieve. Proper financial infrastructure isn't optional — it's essential.
Start with a dedicated business checking account at a bank that understands small business needs. Look for low or no monthly fees, reasonable transaction limits, mobile check deposit, and integration with accounting software. Credit unions often offer better terms than large banks. Also open a business savings account for tax reserves and emergency funds.
Business credit lines provide working capital for inventory, payroll, or bridging receivables. You can establish vendor credit (net-30 terms with suppliers) without a credit check. Business credit cards provide 0% intro APR periods and rewards. As your business grows, bank lines of credit offer larger amounts at lower rates.
Accounting infrastructure includes choosing software (QuickBooks, Xero, or FreshBooks), setting up chart of accounts, connecting bank feeds for automatic transaction import, and establishing a system for receipt capture. Hire a bookkeeper before you think you need one — catching up on 12 months of messy books is far more expensive than monthly maintenance.
