a friend of mine works for fed-ex… he bought his route and truck. What really sucks is you have to maintain your own delivery truck. He just had to spend almost $1000 to get a new clutch and streering knuckle put in.

how to instantly get credit for a business.

apply for a tax id number

take a few thousand dollars, and apply for various business start up loans from a few banks… for an amount no greater than what you have in cash assets.

Accumulate minor amounts of interest over a few months with said loans.

Pay back loans. Business credit rating for its small stature and size should sky rocket into an A-B rating.
