Cleaning Your Business Credit

In brief – Fix-it!  This may be easier than you expect, given that there are - for the most part, wrong information all credit reports.  First things first, pull all three of your personal credit reports from Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion.  If you are already in business for yourself, pull your Dun and Bradstreet reports.  Make sure that every single line on the report applies to you, and not someone else with the same name.  Now you will start a letter-writing campaign.   You will need to ask the credit bureaus to delete older items, such as those real old late payments.  Writing and being persistent, and asking to remove those, make no-since lines will help your score come back up.
