Knowing these simple concepts, you can determine if you need a commercial or personal loan. Now, if you are still undecided about whether to apply for a personal loan, you can take the following pros and cons into consideration: 

Pros: 

It is easier to get a personal loan than a commercial loan, especially for new businesses that are regularly not approved for traditional financing.

You usually do not have to provide collateral or security. 

They are a quick financing option. Commercial loans may take longer to receive offers. 

Cons: 

You are risking your personal credit.

Interest is not deductible, unlike interest on commercial loans.
