Every way we help small businesses
Some of this Northside delivers itself. The rest runs through our established partner network of lenders, platforms, buyers and suppliers. Pick what fits, or tell us what you need.
Websites, built before you pay
We build your website first. You pay only if you love it.
Who it's for
Local businesses with no website or an outdated one: trades, home services, shops and restaurants.
- Contractors, roofers, plumbers, landscapers, cleaners
- Salons, shops and restaurants
- Any local business that gets customers by phone
The problem
People search on their phones, and a business with no site, or a broken one, loses that call to the next result.
What we do
We build a fast, phone-friendly one-page site with your real services, hours, location and a tap-to-call button, and send you a private preview before you spend anything.
How it works
- We build a preview with your real business details. No cost to look.
- You review it on your phone and reply with any changes. Edits before launch are free.
- Like it? Pay once and we connect your domain and put it live within 24 hours of payment.
Google Business Profile fix
Show up right when people search for you on Google.
Who it's for
Businesses whose Google listing has wrong hours, an old phone number, few photos or the wrong categories.
- Businesses with an unclaimed or outdated Google listing
- New locations
- Anyone adding a new website
The problem
A listing with wrong hours or a dead number sends customers to a competitor before they ever call.
What we do
We correct your hours, phone and address, add fresh photos, set the right business categories, and give you a review link you can text to customers.
How it works
- Pay $299 by PayPal and put your business name in the note.
- We review your listing and fix the details, photos and categories.
- You get a short review link to text happy customers.
AI receptionist
Answers your phone 24/7, books appointments and texts back missed callers.
Who it's for
Owners who miss calls while they are on a job, with a customer, or after hours.
- Trades and home services
- Offices that book appointments
- Any business that gets more calls than it can answer
The problem
A missed call is often a lost job, because the caller dials the next business on the list.
What we do
We set up an AI receptionist on your business line that answers around the clock, books appointments, and texts back anyone who hangs up, then sends you the details.
How it works
- Reply AI and we send you a demo line to call.
- We set it up with your services, hours and booking rules.
- Calls get answered 24/7 and you get a text with each lead.
Grant drafts for small nonprofits
A submission-ready grant draft in 3 business days, for a flat fee.
Who it's for
Small New York City nonprofits with a grant deadline coming and no one with time to write it.
- Arts, youth and community nonprofits
- Groups applying to city and borough arts funds
- Teams with one person doing development
The problem
One-person teams miss deadlines or submit rushed applications because writing the narrative and budget takes days.
What we do
We write the narrative, the budget justification and an answer to every question on the form, built from the materials you already have, and deliver it in 3 business days so you have time to review.
How it works
- Reserve a draft slot and send your existing materials.
- We write the full draft in 3 business days.
- You review, edit and submit it yourself.
1099-NEC filing, done for you
We collect W-9s, e-file your 1099-NEC forms with the IRS and send every contractor a copy.
Who it's for
Businesses that paid contractors or 1099 drivers $2,000 or more in 2026.
- Trucking companies paying 1099 drivers
- Contractors paying subs
- Any small business with freelancers
The problem
1099-NEC forms for 2026 payments are due to the IRS and to contractors by February 1, 2027, and late forms carry IRS penalties of $60 to $340 per form.
What we do
Each contractor gets a secure electronic W-9 request, so tax IDs never travel by email. We show you every form to approve, then e-file through an IRS-authorized e-filing provider and email each contractor their copy.
How it works
- Pay $99 by PayPal.
- Reply with your business details and contractor list: names, emails and what you paid each one.
- We collect W-9s, you approve the forms, we e-file and send copies.
Small business funding
Working capital, term loans, SBA loans, equipment financing and lines of credit.
Who it's for
Small businesses that need capital for payroll, inventory, equipment, a slow season or a new location.
- Restaurants and retail
- Contractors waiting on job payments
- Businesses needing roughly $10K to $500K+
The problem
Banks say no or take months, and cash gaps don't wait.
What we do
Northside works with an established network of lenders. We walk you through each offer so you can pick the one that fits. Applying is free and starts with a soft credit check that does not affect your score.
How it works
- Apply in a few minutes. Free, soft credit check.
- Compare the offers you qualify for.
- Accept the one you like. Working capital can fund in as little as 24 to 48 hours.
Northside may receive compensation from the lender if you are funded.
Truck and carrier funding
Keep your trucks rolling between loads.
Who it's for
Owner-operators, small fleets, hotshot and box truck operators, and growing carriers.
- Owner-operators under their own authority
- Fleets of 2 to 10 trucks
- Carriers taking on new lanes
The problem
Brokers pay in 30 to 45 days while fuel, insurance and repairs are due now, and a truck that is down earns nothing.
What we do
Working capital, equipment financing, repair funding, lines of credit, and term or SBA loans for trucking, through Northside's established lending partners. Free to apply with a soft credit check.
How it works
- Apply in a few minutes. Free, soft credit check.
- Compare the offers you qualify for.
- Accept the one you like. Working capital can fund in as little as 24 to 48 hours.
Northside may receive compensation from the lender if you are funded.
Payroll on Gusto
Payroll that runs itself, with taxes filed for you.
Who it's for
Small teams paying staff, drivers or contractors by hand, or on a system they have outgrown.
- Restaurants with hourly and tipped staff
- Retail with seasonal staff
- Trucking carriers paying W-2 or 1099 drivers
- Contractors and nonprofits
The problem
Payroll taxes, direct deposit, W-2s and 1099s eat hours every pay period and every January.
What we do
Northside works with Gusto to get small teams running: unlimited payroll runs, payroll taxes calculated, filed and paid, W-2s and 1099s at year-end, plus benefits when you want them. Gusto moves your payroll history over.
How it works
- Tell us how many people you pay and what you use today.
- We send your Gusto signup and point you to the plan that fits.
- Run your first paid payroll and Gusto sends you a $100 Visa gift card, per its promotion terms.
Northside may receive compensation from Gusto.
Shopify POS setup
One system for your register, your online store and your inventory.
Who it's for
Shops and restaurants running separate systems for in-store and online sales.
- Independent retail shops
- Shops that also sell online
- Businesses planning a switch after the holidays
The problem
Two systems that don't match mean inventory miscounts and double work, worst during the holiday rush.
What we do
Northside is a Shopify Partner. Through that partnership we connect you with Shopify's team for a POS walkthrough and help you plan the switch: one inventory count across your store and website.
How it works
- Tell us what you sell and what you use today.
- With your OK, we send your details to Shopify so their team can walk you through POS.
- You decide. Nothing changes unless you sign up.
Northside may receive compensation from Shopify.
Real Estate division
Northside connects buyers and sellers through its established network of cash buyers, investors and operators. Investor and non-retail buyers get off-market deal flow. Sellers who want to sell and close within two weeks get in front of cash buyers.
Sell your property and close fast
Sellers who want to sell and close within two weeks get in front of cash buyers in our network.
Who it's for
Owners who want a fast, certain sale without listing, showings or waiting on a retail buyer's mortgage.
- Inherited or vacant properties
- Properties needing repairs
- Landlords ready to exit
- Anyone on a tight timeline
The problem
A traditional listing can take months, and retail buyers can fall through on financing or inspections.
What we do
Northside connects sellers with cash buyers and investors in its established network. When title is clear, a cash buyer from our network can close in as little as 14 days.
How it works
- Send your property details below.
- We review them and share the property with cash buyers in our network that fit.
- Interested buyers make their offer. You decide, and close with your own attorney.
Northside may receive compensation from partners in a completed transaction.
Sellers: sell and close fast
Off-market deal flow for buyers
Investor, cash and other non-retail buyers get off-market deals from our network.
Who it's for
Investors, cash buyers, landlords and operators buying property outside the retail market.
- Fix-and-flip investors
- Buy-and-hold landlords
- Cash buyers and funds
- Developers looking for land
The problem
The best deals rarely hit the public listings, and by the time they do the price has gone up.
What we do
Northside shares off-market properties from its established network of sellers and partners with buyers whose buy box fits.
How it works
- Send your buy box below: markets, property types, price range and funding.
- We match it against properties coming through our network.
- When a property fits, we send you the details to review.

- Wholesalers and distributors

The problem
Finding a reliable counterparty at the right price and volume takes time, and the wrong one costs more.
