In this episode, we give you insight into how your business can take advantage of the Paycheck Protection Program included in the CARES Act. This program allows employers with fewer than 500 employees to be eligible for up ten million dollars, some or all of which could be potentially forgiven. In other words, free money from the government to maintain payroll and avoid layoffs during this difficult time! We cover what you need to know to apply for the Paycheck Protection Program, where to find approved banks for the Paycheck Protection Program and how lenders can help.
