Go to Dunn & Bradstreet and enter your business information, including your EIN#. This is the company that monitors business credit. Follow their recommendations on establishing a good business credit history.
I would also try to get a line of business credit at your local business bank. If they turn you down, they will help you get a loan with the SBA (Small Business Administration) who pretty much will help fund any business.
Also, you may want to try to clean your credit. It takes 30 days and couldn't hurt. Check out the article below to see how.
Hope this helps.

You may have to start an account with a small vendor. The initial purchases might be COD and then you can build to a credit line. Larger companies are going to insist on your personal guarantee which will require your SS#.

You must provide your ssn. even if you have an LLC. Most companies will provide you the business credit card, and won't report it on your personal credit report.

A business had a number similar to a person's social security number. For a sole proprietor, it is the ss#. For a partnership or corporation, is is the federal tax ID number.
If you have a sole proprietorship, you'll have to give them your ss#.

Without your SS # they can't check your credit rating. You will pretty much encounter this anywhere you go.
