How it works

Three steps. One funded deal.

No cold-call floor, no finance degree, no guessing which funder wants the file. A system you run from a laptop, in order.

Step 01 · Free

Read the 2026 Broker Stack.

Six short chapters and seven live tools: match a deal to its funder lane, read a bank statement in 90 seconds, and see the 90-day plan week by week.

Step 02 · 60 seconds

Pick your one door.

The Path Finder asks four questions and points you at the one product to start with: the $47 drill, the $297 Vault, or the Accelerator. Never all three.

Find my path
Step 03 · 90 days

Run the system. Fund the deal.

Clean files, matched funders, a follow-up cadence that does not sound desperate. The first funded deal is the target, and every week is built backward from it.

Plain answers

Questions people ask before they start.

What is an alternative funding broker?

A broker who connects small businesses with non-bank capital: merchant cash advances, term loans, lines of credit, equipment financing, and SBA programs. The broker packages the file, matches it to the right funder, and is paid by the funder when the deal funds. No finance degree required; licensing varies by state.

How much does a funding broker make per deal?

Typically $5,000 to $30,000 in commission per funded deal, depending on the product and the size of the advance or loan. The funder pays the broker, so the business owner pays nothing to apply. Brokers running a real system fund several deals a month.

How long does it take to fund a first deal?

Ninety days is the realistic target with a structured plan: build the lender map, learn to read a bank statement in 90 seconds, run a consistent outreach system, and submit clean files. The 90-Day Framework lays that path out week by week.

Do I need a finance background or cold-calling skills?

No. The Funded Method was built for career switchers, 1099 reps, and first-time brokers. The workflow is AI-native: no cold calls, no finance degree, no 80-hour weeks. You need a computer and the discipline to follow a system from the first step.

Is the 2026 Broker Stack really free?

Yes. Every chapter and every live tool, including the Buy Box Matcher, is published in full at thefundedmethod.com/broker-stack with no payment and no login. The paid products are the $47 drill, the $297 Submission Vault, and the Accelerator cohort.
