If you are making T-shirts and selling them or have a E-commerce shop or a dog walking business you may want to look at getting yourself a business credit card. Not only do they have higher credit limits when opening the account but it helps keep track of all of your expenses when it comes to tax season. Most banks have tools on there website to help you categorize and keep track of how your business is doing for you. Another plus side is that this account does not affect your personal credit score. Your business is its own entity with its own score now.
