Who Clayhill Advances Is, and Where It Sits in Stevens Point, WI
Clayhill Advances works from 1338 2nd St in Stevens Point, the county seat of Portage County. The work is narrow by design: listen to what a business needs the money for, set that cost against six funding types, and pass a clear request to funding partners. The partners review it and decide; Clayhill does not set rates or approve anything.
Owners reach it on (715) 226-9612 or with the request form on this site. The site leads with business lines of credit because so many Portage County, WI costs repeat, and it keeps term loans, equipment financing, working capital, inventory financing and card-sales advances beside them.
What Clayhill Does and Does Not Do for Tavern Owners
For a tavern, Clayhill sorts the costs: a draft system or a cooler toward equipment financing, distributor orders and payroll toward a line of credit, a kitchen addition or a purchase of the bar toward a term loan. It then passes the request on with the figures the owner provides.
It does not handle licensing, give legal or tax advice, or promise an approval, an amount or a date. Questions about the liquor license go to the City Clerk, and questions about taxes go to an accountant.
What Clayhill Does and Does Not Do for Insurance Agencies
For an insurance agency, the common requests are a book purchase, a producer hire or an office move with new technology. Clayhill frames each as a funding type and passes it to partners familiar with commission income.
It does not value a book of business, review the purchase agreement or advise on carrier contracts. Those belong with the agency's accountant and attorney. The steps show where Clayhill's part ends.
