Welcome to Resilience: Succeeding in a Post-COVID Economy

Welcome to the first edition of the NH Business Finance Guide. On behalf of myself and the rest of the team at Service Credit Union, we are excited and honored to be able to provide you with valuable information about entrepreneurship in our home state of New Hampshire.

In 1957, Service CU was formed to provide affordable credit to airmen and their families at what is now Pease Air National Guard Base. Today, we still serve active and retired military and their families, as well as consumers worldwide, including businesses of all sizes throughout New England and beyond.

Service CU is committed to helping improve the lives of those we serve. For business owners, this means we are dedicated to helping you reach your goals by offering personalized, customized solutions. When you work with us, you are trusting us with what’s most important to you, and we take that very seriously. We’re here for you because we share your dreams, as well as a mutual respect and a desire to ensure you reach all your business goals.

Businesses have learned how to be more effective during the pandemic and are more resilient as a result. New Hampshire, and our nation at large, is ready to face what comes next after the incredible impacts the pandemic has had on every part of our world.

Service CU has proudly been there to serve New Hampshire businesses by providing over 600 Paycheck Protection Loans, representing over $23 million dollars. Now that we are looking forward to the future, I am excited to tell you that our local economies are fostering new growth, new jobs, and business expansion leading to renewed promise and excitement for each business, community and family. Tomorrow may look different for your business, but together, we can start taking steps to come back stronger than ever.

In this issue, we will discuss what that new landscape looks like for New Hampshire business owners. I think you’ll find the information not only timely but also very useful. I encourage you to reach out to us at any time to share your business hopes and dreams, and my team of experts can help you reach them.

Your partner in success,

DAVID WEED
