THE CREDIT PEOPLE: “JUST YOUR ORDINARY EVERYDAY CREDIT SUPER HEROES!”

Founded in 2001, and seen in The Wall Street Journal, Smart Money, and USA Today, The Credit People® help improve your credit reports and raise your credit scores through expert credit repair services.

With 20+ years of experience helping over one hundred thousand people with their credit, we never set out to be the leaders, just the best.

Here's an inside look at our hand-picked teams:

Hiring The Credit People to improve your credit is like having a highly trained swat team on your side. (Except our swat team greets you with a smile and keeps everything simple.)

Credit Repair Team:

Disputes, and Letters, and Creditors, OH MY! Having processed over 310,000 unique credit reports, this team is your front line. Not only certified and trained in the various laws governing credit repair, such as the Fair Credit Reporting Act, The Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act, and the Fair Debts Collections Practices Act, but your credit repair team has required ongoing training in recent laws, statutes, and credit reporting practices.

Score Analysis Team:

No two credit reports are created equal. What affects your credit score, and how it improves, requires special attention. Just deleting negative information from a credit report without addressing the credit score is like repairing the inside of a crashed car, but neglecting to do anything about the outside appearance. Understanding debt to income ratio, credit type ratio, scoring models, and of course, credit history, is key. The Credit People have yet to see another company follow new trends as closely. This is what our score-driven results® are all about.

Support Team:

Let's face it; your credit report is all about the numbers. That doesn't mean you need to be treated like one.

Sales Team:

These are the folks that you probably signed up with over the phone. They have absolutely no sales skills, and we want to keep it that way! When you're the best choice, there's no need to be “salesy”. Instead, our team is here to walk you through the credit repair process and ensure smooth sailing when you sign-up. They get things started off on the right foot!

Executive Team:

“Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain!” Our executive team consists of people who have a heart for helping people improve their credit and a mind for making it happen. Guiding the mission of The Credit People team, our executives steer the ship in the right direction, always.

Tech Team:

Yes, credit repair companies have technology teams. We take security seriously. 2048bit encryption, PCI compliance, data depository, all of this is in place to protect your important personal information.

Marketing Team:

You probably found us somehow, and that somehow was all because of our marketing team. In a way, they are the ones responsible for bringing us together! A match made in heaven.

The Credit Partners:

Our independent sales force, our “affiliates”. We have an entire team devoted to just catering to the needs of our affiliates.

Most organizations and individuals work in the context of annual goals and plans; a 12-month execution cycle. Instead, The 12 Week Year avoids the pitfalls and low productivity of annualized thinking. This book redefines your "year" to be 12 weeks long. In 12 weeks, there just isn't enough time to get complacent, and urgency increases and intensifies. The 12 Week Year creates focus and clarity on what matters most and a sense of urgency to do it now. In the end more of the important stuff gets done and the impact on results is profound.

• Explains how to leverage the power of a 12-week year to drive improved results in any area of your life
• Offers a how-to book for both individuals and organizations seeking to improve their execution effectiveness
• Authors are leading experts on execution and implementation

Turn your organization's idea of a year on its head, and speed your journey to success.

TechSoup equips changemakers with transformative technology solutions and skills they need to improve lives globally and locally.

We do much more than offer discounts on the tools that you need. Read about all our great initiatives and how we get these resources — and more — into the hands of people working for good all over the world.

Most startups fail. But many of those failures are preventable. The Lean Startup is a new approach being adopted across the globe, changing the way companies are built and new products are launched.

Eric Ries defines a startup as an organization dedicated to creating something new under conditions of extreme uncertainty. This is just as true for one person in a garage or a group of seasoned professionals in a Fortune 500 boardroom. What they have in common is a mission to penetrate that fog of uncertainty to discover a successful path to a sustainable business.

The Lean Startup approach fosters companies that are both more capital efficient and that leverage human creativity more effectively. Inspired by lessons from lean manufacturing, it relies on “validated learning,” rapid scientific experimentation, as well as a number of counter-intuitive practices that shorten product development cycles, measure actual progress without resorting to vanity metrics, and learn what customers really want. It enables a company to shift directions with agility, altering plans inch by inch, minute by minute.

Rather than wasting time creating elaborate business plans, The Lean Startup offers entrepreneurs—in companies of all sizes—a way to test their vision continuously, to adapt and adjust before it’s too late. Ries provides a scientific approach to creating and managing successful startups in a age when companies need to innovate more than ever.
