The Net-30 Strategy

1. Start Small

Open 2-3 easy vendors. Place small orders ($50-100). Pay immediately upon receipt.

2. Pay Early

Paydex rewards early payment. A $50 order paid in 5 days boosts your score more than a $500 order paid on time.

3. Build to 5+

D&B needs 4-5 reporting tradelines to generate a Paydex score. Aim for 5-7 vendors within 3 months.

4. Graduate

After 3-6 months of perfect history, apply for business credit cards that don't require personal guarantees.
