    Wonderful information you have given me, your clarity in explaining things is much appreciated!
    What about American Express? I see many offers for business accounts with them as well as Chase. I feel like they could be great opportunities as well.

    • @ElizabethPW
      @ElizabethPW  Год назад +2

      Yes I agree that AmEx is also a great solution -- I use them for credit cards and savings. They are great for credit cards especially because they tend to favor the card holder in any disputes. I agree that AmEx and Chase are good options to research, especially if you have a personal banking relationship with them already.

    Please advise about the business credit card. Thank you Elizabeth

      I generally recommend having an AmEx card and also one other MC/Visa card for the places that don't take AmEx (shop around for who is offering good rates, and also check out the bank where you are currently banking)

      Also, what is your thought on PNC Bank?

    • @ElizabethPW
      @ElizabethPW  Год назад +1

      Hm I don't know, does it have to do with a loan or credit line?

    • @ElizabethPW
      @ElizabethPW  Год назад +1

      One aspect of PNC Bank is they are closing many (most?) of their branches to focus on mobile/online banking. So if you want an in-person bank, they may not work out

    What should one do with a deposit that was required for account opening if that deposit came from personal checking?

    • @ElizabethPW
      @ElizabethPW  Год назад +4

      The initial deposit from the owner's funds into an LLC/Corp checking account would usually be tracked as their "capital contribution" (like buying the stock or membership shares of the business)

    Bank of the west has only 1 person in each branch in the bay area with no experience on llc and holding structures to open business accounts

    • @ElizabethPW
      @ElizabethPW  Год назад

      Ah thanks for sharing your experience, yes it seems like all the banks are severely reducing their in-person staff

    What about the American Express Business Checking Account?

    • @ElizabethPW
      @ElizabethPW  5 месяцев назад

      I have not personally used their check account but I do like their merchant accounts and credit cards, so it is something to try
