New to Square and would like a loan

[Harper_Lane-]

Hi, I am new to Square but have been running my business for just about a year.  My 1st Birthday is 10/14/21.  I'm growing consistently, am adding products to my website daily and am about to open a small one-room boutique in my house that will be open 2x a month (like an open house concept) and once a week "on demand", then more over the holiday season.  I would like to take out an SBA loan, but all the information I find is for PPP loans, and I'm too small to qualify for one.  Is it possible for a "one woman show" making less than 25k/year to get a loan?  Everything I see has a min of 100k annual revenue requirement to even apply.  Thanks!
