The Small Business Administration has been a source of help for many small business owners. Whether they helped you find a small business loan, attended to your needs after a natural disaster, or just connected you with free resources, they can help your business be the best it can be.

Now in order to help you figure out how your business does compared to others, the SBA has an easy to use widget highlighted in Entrepreneur that can give you just that information. If you’re the competitive type who strives to be the best of the best, SizeUp is the tool for you.

You can start by selecting what industry you’re in and the city is it located in. From there you can…

Compare your revenue to competitors in other cities, counties, and states.
See what other small businesses were started the same year as yours.
Look for wholesalers and distributors in your area.
Compare how much you’re paying your workers to other companies’ salaries.
Look for the best areas to market your business.

The information provided, according to the SBA, is sent to them though so keep that in mind. If you also want to see the full results you’ll need to sign in and provide an email address. This tool is great if you’re looking to find a new direction for your business or the right direction for a new business.

Loan availability, rates, APRs (Annual Percentage Rate), and other terms vary by advertiser and borrower attributes, including borrower location. Lenders have a range of available APRs; only borrowers with excellent credit will qualify for the lower rates. As of 01/11/2024, our advertisers were offering loans to some consumers for as little as a 6.40% APR on a three-year $100,000 loan.

We do not provide financial products or services. Rather, AmONE provides administrative and marketplace services by attempting to connect consumers with service providers offering products and services such as debt settlement and personal loans. We do not take applications or make credit decisions. We may not be able to match you with any of our advertisers. Credit and other decisions and terms are determined by our advertisers based upon the consumer's submission of an application to the advertiser, which may obtain other information about the consumer from third parties.

Why AmONE is Trusted By Millions for Their Loan Needs

Anyone can put together a group of lenders in a marketplace to offer people loans. We go beyond that. We not only partner with some of the best lenders around (like Citi, Rocket Loans, SoFi and so many more), we also work with partners who can help people like you go beyond a one-time loan. We connect you with the money programs you need to help you get real financial solutions in place that allow you to tackle your debt and money problems so you can move forward. Getting out from under debt to financial freedom is daunting and we're ready to help you every step of the way.

AI is the hottest thing around right now, but we know from our decades of experience in the personal finance space that the last thing someone wants to do is talk to a robot when they need real answers. Solving money problems can be stressful and daunting, so don't settle for generic responses and information that offers little real financial insights. Speak to one of our many support specialists who all work from an AmONE office right here in the U.S. and get the answers you really need to make better financial decisions.

We work hard to find loan offers for even the most challenging financial situations. With our large lender marketplace, we know we give everyone the best shot at getting the loan, debt and credit help they're hoping to find. Even when someone's credit is clearly poor or they hold a large amount of debt, we still get our customers in front of lenders to give them the best shot at securing the funds they need. When the unexpected happens and customers are rejected for loans, we still work with them to find other financial solutions that put them on the path to financial recovery so they can keep moving forward toward their money goals.
