<p class="p1">Seasoned financial professional <a href="https://www.social-matic.com/scott-crockett-everests-founder-and-ceo-shares-5-ways-to-maximize-the-benefit-of-surplus-cash-in-your-business/"><span class="s1">Scott Crockett, Everest Business Funding</span></a>’s Founder and CEO, has gained many skills during his entrepreneurial career. His knowledge in finance and business has helped him identify some crucial aspects, such as good credit, that can make his life easier as a business developer and operator. Below, Crockett goes into further details surrounding five things anyone can do to manage their score and keep it healthy in the name of their business.</p>
<p class="p1"><b>Check your credit report for errors</b></p>
<p class="p1">The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau released their findings stating that one in five consumers have credit reports with an error. <a href="https://wallethub.com/edu/cs/improve-credit-score/19579"><span class="s1">Four out of five people who dispute</span></a> them see an effect of a change to their credit report. Disputing a credit-report error is one of the less time-consuming and simplest avenues to take to boost your credit score.</p>

<p class="p1"><b>Pay off a credit card in full</b></p>
<p class="p1">“A healthy financial habit to start practicing is paying off your credit card the same day that you use it. That way, you’ll never be late for a payment and never spend more than you have,” <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pgcy_mjuqJs"><span class="s1">Scott Crockett, Everest</span></a> CEO and Founder. Debt can quickly be accumulated with a credit card if you bite off more than you can chew financially and only use it when you are ready to buy. Your credit will be negatively affected if you miss a payment.</p>
<p class="p1"><b>Limit how often you apply for credit</b></p>
<p class="p1">When you apply for credit cards too often or apply for multiple cards at once, the result can lead to a decrease in your credit score. Every time you apply for a credit card, the financial world sees you as having fewer funds for the added loan or credit card you accept under your name. It does not put you in a good light in the eyes of a lender. And applying for multiple cards at once will make a lender think you are desperate to borrow money.</p>

<p class="p1"><b>Limit the amount of credit you use</b></p>
<p class="p1">Maintain a good credit score by utilizing below thirty percent of your maximum credit amount on every individual card. To have the best credit score through this strategy, shoot to no more than ten percent of your total credit value.</p>
<p class="p1"><b>Keep unused accounts open</b></p>
<p class="p1">You want to develop a long credit history to add quality to your credit score. Excellent credit scores reflect a high amount of available credit along with an extended credit history. Due to the goal of building credit history, you should not close old or unused accounts, even if you plan never to use them again. Closing a credit account reflects a lack of experience with credit.</p>
