I’m a single mother of one dependent in college and want to open a “sweets” business (cakes, cookies, candies). I have lousy credit due to an ugly divorce. Please help if you have any experience with this.

They appear to be for tools once you are already in business, like money to pay an IT person or accountant if you need it. SBA has a 10,000.00 microloan that you still have to have good credit to get for a start up but I will need about 20,000.00 total. I can try to get a tax id number but even that would be New credit which can be worse than no credit. Anyone have this as a specialty or gone through this same situation lately?
