New chapter.

I've spent 20 years building businesses and deploying capital. Time to share what I've learned — the real strategies, the expensive mistakes, and the principles that actually work.

Starting now.

You paid down your loan early and your lender charged you for it.

There was a prepayment clause in your loan agreement, by the time you realised, it was too late.

[Damilare Alabi @dear_dammy]

At BlueCredit our position is simple: zero prepayment fees.

Your good performance should work in your favour, not against you.

Discipline looks boring until the results start to show

You can either turn any situation you pass through into pain or power.

The choice is yours.

A loan is not patient capital. Use it to scale or fill operational gaps, never to fund a new or untested idea. 💡

[Damilare Alabi @dear_dammy]

I used to think confidence meant feeling ready.

Then I realized: the vase in the corner isn’t overlooked because it’s worthless. It’s overlooked because of where it’s placed.

Stand in the center. Confidence comes from trying over and over, even when success is not guaranteed.

[Damilare Alabi @dear_dammy]

The bottom line:

Use loans to amplify what already works — not to create what doesn’t exist.

If your business idea requires a loan to exist, it’s not ready for a loan yet.

[Damilare Alabi @dear_dammy]

When is scaling actually just starting over in disguise?

I just turned down a ₦20M loan for someone with 2 years of proven sales.

Here’s what she got wrong — and what many entrepreneurs miss about business loans 🧵

[Damilare Alabi @dear_dammy]

At that point, you’re not asking us to fund an experiment.

You’re asking us to help you scale something that already works.

Lenders are not impressed by ambition. We’re impressed by proof.
