One way to help bring credit utilization down is to ask current creditors to increase your line of credit. They oftentimes do not pull a credit inquiry if you've shown a consistent history of on time payments above the minimum for 6+ months. It's an easy "boost" strategy that takes just mere minutes of your time. Many companies allow you to request one through their app/website! Moreover, if you go to Experian's website and create an account, they have a "boost" feature you can use that may boost your score another dozen or so points. You're welcome!

How long you've had credit -- 15%
The different types of credit you've used -- 10%
