Best Answer

Getting a Dun and Bradstreet number is quite simple. First of all you should incorporate first. You can get one for a sole prop, but not a good idea. Then you simply go to the website, or call and request a free number. I stress free, because on of their reps will try to make you pay for it, even though it is completely free! Once you get the number, then comes the difficult part of building up a strong business credit score. That can be done by opening up several small vendor accounts, known as trade tape accounts. Certain accounts report to DNB for free, and certain ones do not, so it is important to make sure you are using the right accounts. To create a commercial credit report with D&B, visit http://www.dandb.com/free-duns-number. The most effective way to build your report is through a Credit Builder Solution.
