Co-Founder, Lending Gurus

Chris Scarfo is the co-founder of Lending Gurus, a financial guidance marketplace that connects consumers and small businesses with vetted lending partners through a fast, conversation-based matching process.

Before building Lending Gurus, Chris spent years in commercial banking as a Senior Business Banker and Vice President, working directly with business owners on lending, treasury services, and growth financing. He understands the lending process from both sides of the table what lenders actually look for, and what business owners rarely get told upfront.

That experience is what shaped Lending Gurus: a platform built to cut through the noise and get people to the right funding partner faster.

He writes about small business funding, working capital, credit strategy, and the practical side of borrowing — with no jargon and no sales pitch.

How to Get a Business Line of Credit When You Actually Need One
A business line of credit is different from most financing products in one important way: you don't have to use it when you get it.
