One of our taglines at Serve Funding is Relationships > Bots. As in, “relationships are greater than bots.” Whatever do we mean by this? By bots, we are referring to 2 types of alternatives to our high-touch, high-trust model of sourcing and securing working capital for our business clients: 1 - the automated fintech model where the business leader fills out an online form and the resulting algorithm kicks out some option(s) of loan structures or 2 - the ‘boiler room’ brokerage shop model where a young, pushy sales “hero” takes your basic information and serves up some offer(s) typically designed to maximize their own commissions Both of these scenarios may work as a “quick fix.” Neither is designed to serve the best interests of the borrower. And neither one will be in a position to take RESPONSIBILITY for the outcomes generated. You simply won’t have a way to keep them ACCOUNTABLE. Yet the company you lead was built on a foundation of you, or someone else, having taken ownership: Someone who is responsible, and acts like it, day in and day out. Serve Funding is built to align with that same entrepreneurial ownership mentality. Therefore our second core value reflects that. We call it RESPONSIBILITY. We believe true responsibility means owning not just the victories, but the hard conversations too. Sometimes it means being the voice that says "not yet" when it would be easier to say "yes." Our team lives by a simple truth: in finance, there are no small decisions. Every choice, every recommendation, every action ripples through businesses, families, and communities. What does real responsibility look like? It's obsessing over every detail. It's treating your business's success as our personal mission. It's being there not just for the celebrations, but for the challenges. Responsibility. Because your success depends on it. #accountablebusinesspartner #takingresponsibility #HeretoServe

When payroll meets unexpected delays, time isn't just money - it's team trust and operational stability. When a growing, GA-based specialty services company was facing this very scenario, their payroll provider - a national PEO firm (Professional Employer Organization) - reached out to Serve Funding for help. Despite strong fundamentals and a solid customer base, an unexpected delay in a major receivable threatened to impact the company’s most critical obligation: payroll. This wasn't just about numbers on a spreadsheet. It was about real people counting on their next paycheck. Within four business days, we sourced, structured and funded a $150,000 term loan that ensured every employee was paid on time. No disruptions. No tough conversations. Just business as usual for their dedicated team. To our partners in banking and PEO services: when your clients face time-sensitive challenges, fast action matters. To business owners navigating similar situations: there's always a solution when you have the right partners. Thank you to the referring partners who trust us to act swiftly when it matters most. Here's to keeping great companies moving forward. #BusinessFunding #WorkingCapital #CreativeWorkingCapital

A powerful reflection from our CEO Michael Kodinsky on this MLK Day. At Serve Funding, our name isn't just a label - it's our purpose. Dr. King's words from "The Drum Major Instinct" remind us that true greatness lies in service to others. Not in titles. Not in transactions. But in having "a heart full of grace, a soul generated by love." These words shape how we show up every day - how we listen, solve problems, and build partnerships. Martin Luther King's message captures why service isn't just part of our business - it's our foundation. Thank you, Michael, for echoing this reminder that we're all called to serve. Because everyone can serve. Because everyone can be great. #MLKDay2025 #ServantLeadership #HereToServe

Success stories happen when visionaries walk into challenging circumstances. In the world of oil and gas services, maintaining growth while managing receivables is a delicate balance. We had the privilege of helping a Texas-based O&G industry leader tackle this exact hurdle head-on. Despite their strong reputation and consistent growth since 2018, over $550,000 in aged (90-day + past-due) receivables was limiting the company’s growth. They were working with a Texas-based, Bank-owned Asset Based Lender specializing in AR finance and the mount of aged receivables was keeping the deal from closing. Michael’s long-time partner at that firm reached out to us for help and connected us with their client, knowing this situation needed a different approach. Working together, we structured a $750,000 term loan that did more than just clear those receivables - it gave this proven team additional working capital to keep their momentum going. We closed this deal in under 3 weeks from first introduction. Sometimes, the right solution just needs the right partners at the table. To our friends in commercial banking: when your clients need creative capital solutions, please consider Serve Funding. To business owners facing similar challenges: let's talk about what's possible! Thank you to our Bank-owned ABL partner for the introduction, and to our term lending partners for seeing the opportunity through to a successful closing. Here's to helping great companies do what they do best. #BusinessFunding #WorkingCapital #HeretoServe

Behind every capital transaction, there's a human story. I've been reflecting on what truly sets Serve Funding apart - and it comes down to one fundamental commitment: TRANSPARENCY. This isn't just a buzzword for us. It's a promise whispered in every client conversation, embedded in every proposal we craft. Transparency means no hidden agendas. No complicated fine print. Just clear, direct communication about what's possible for your business. When an entrepreneur walks into our world, they're not just getting a capital solution. They're gaining a partner who will tell them exactly what they need to hear - not just what they want to hear. We believe trust isn't earned through perfectly polished presentations. It's built through consistent, honest dialogue. Our team doesn't see transactions. We see opportunities to understand, support, and ultimately serve. What does transparency look like in practice? It's picking up the phone. Explaining the "why" behind every recommendation. Demystifying the complex world of business capital. This is how we approach every single relationship. Transparency. It's not just what we do. It's who we are. #BusinessTransparency #TrustMatters #ServeCapital
