San Antonio, TX – Lonestar Valor Funding specializes in a wide range of business funding options, including invoice factoring, term loans, and other financial services aimed at helping businesses grow and thrive.
CEO Jerrod Smith is dedicated to providing effective and tailored funding solutions. With a military and accounting background, Jerrod has a unique approach to business funding, particularly for veterans. His commitment to helping others find the right financial support is rooted in his experiences and challenges.

Jerrod, a Texas native, got inspiration for his business name from his roots and military service. “Lonestar” represents Texas, while “Valor” symbolizes strength and excellence.
Solving Problems with Effective Lending
Jerrod emphasizes matching the right funding options to each business’s specific needs. “I don’t want to get them involved in a funding option that doesn’t fit what they’re looking for,” he explains.
He aims to understand the businesses he works with and ensure they receive funding that supports their growth rather than hinders it.
Nationwide Reach with a Focus on Veterans
While Lonestar Valor Funding serves businesses nationwide, Jerrod specializes in helping military veterans. He finds it easy to relate to fellow veterans, understanding their unique challenges and needs. However, his services are open to all business owners, offering tailored solutions regardless of their backgrounds.
Standing Out in a Competitive Market
What sets Lonestar Valor Funding apart from other lenders is Jerrod’s commitment to helping businesses even if they initially don’t qualify for funding. “If they already have trouble getting funding, I help them fix that issue,” he says.
Jerrod also offers business credit coaching, guiding clients on establishing and utilizing their business credit effectively.
A Passion Born from Personal Experience
Jerrod’s journey into the business funding world was not straightforward. After being medically retired from the military, he felt lost and decided to pursue an accounting degree. He worked with a nonprofit helping homeless veterans, which inspired him to do more. His passion for numbers and helping others led him to start Lonestar Valor Funding.

San Antonio: A Perfect Fit
Though originally from Dallas, Jerrod has found a home in San Antonio, a city he describes as having a small-town vibe despite its size. “People are still cordial here,” he says. He enjoys San Antonio’s community feel and numerous outdoor activities and dining opportunities.
Challenges and Future Plans
Jerrod acknowledges that building his business has been slow but steady. He focuses on networking and relationship building, experimenting with different marketing strategies to find what works best. Despite the challenges, his dedication to helping businesses and veterans remains unwavering.
Giving Back to the Community
Jerrod continues to volunteer with a nonprofit that helps homeless veterans, a cause close to his heart. He also supports his clients beyond funding, offering guidance and coaching to ensure their long-term success.
