    Ashley Boswell

    Co-Founder & Funding Specialist

    Helping business owners cut through the noise and find the capital that actually fits.

    Ashley Boswell is the co-founder of ASAP Capital Solutions, where she helps business owners across the United States, Puerto Rico, and Canada navigate the often-confusing world of business funding. With years of hands-on experience matching owners to the right capital — from merchant cash advances and small business loans to lines of credit, invoice financing, and 0% credit card stacking — Ashley has built her reputation on straight talk and honest guidance.

    Ashley's approach is simple: no jargon, no pressure, and no one-size-fits-all pitches. She believes every funding decision should start with the owner's actual revenue, credit, timeline, and goals — not with whatever product a lender happens to be pushing that week. That philosophy is what led to the creation of the AI Funding Match Calculator, which Ashley reviews personally for every business that completes it.

    Before co-founding ASAP Capital Solutions, Ashley worked closely with small and mid-sized business owners who were repeatedly handed a single funding option and told it was their only choice. She saw firsthand how costly that mismatch could be, and she made it her mission to give owners a clearer, more honest path to the capital they need to grow.
