Vent: Dropped $300 on a 'business credit building' service that did nothing

I saw an ad for a company that said they could help you build business credit fast. Paid them $300 upfront about six months ago. All they did was send me a generic PDF and a list of banks, which I could have found for free online. My business credit score hasn't moved a single point. Has anyone actually had a good experience with one of these services, or are they all just a waste of cash?

Did you check your personal credit first?

Idk I used to think checking personal credit first was overkill but honestly this post changed my mind, it makes so much sense to know where you stand before jumping into anything.

It's wild how many people skip that step! We're all just winging it sometimes.
