You're a jewelry, hardgoods & metal finishing shop in Ann Arbor, MI — one of the strongest jewelry, hardgoods & metal finishing markets in the Midwest.
Every casting, plating tank, and polishing wheel in your shop represents cash you've already spent — gold and silver on account or consigned from a refiner, nickel and chrome plating chemistry, cyanide-based gold baths, powder coat and anodizing lines that cost real money to run compliant. Then a retailer, distributor, or OEM customer takes 45 or 60 days to pay for finished goods.
Locally, that plays out against auto R&D primes, KLA, med-device OEMs, Michigan Medicine supply chain and terms of net-45 to net-90. We already know the funding partners active in this sector and this metro — the referral is faster because we're not starting cold.

For jewelry, hardgoods & metal finishing in Ann Arbor, the first look is usually invoice factoring against your commercial AR: that's what most directly closes the gap between net-45 to net-90 on the receivables side and EMS component, cleanroom, precision tooling, and validation-run spend on the production side. From there, an equipment or working-capital line is a common second step as the shop scales. Compare the full stack on the Ann Arbor programs page.
Directional estimates, not quotes or guarantees: factoring typically takes 3 to 10 days to fund, and equipment financing takes 5 to 15 business days. Funding timing depends on the independent funding partner. That's the "actually receive money in your operating account" timeline, not the "signed a term sheet" one.

In most states, funding partners pay us when an account funds or activates; in California and Missouri they instead pay a fixed fee per inquiry, whether or not you are funded. Either way, you pay us nothing.
