Business Start Up Funding
in the US
At this time, there isn't much start up funding available in the United States. Small business owners mainly have to come up with their own funds.
If they approach banks or investors for funding, they have to provide a professional business plan, with realistic facts and figures that demonstrate they will be successful. This is very tough to do.
Many small business owners start their small businesses with their own funds first or borrow money from friends and family.
Many start-ups get taken advantage of because they think they can acquire funding this way. The small business owners buy into the online and offline ads that say they can get grants if they pay a little.
Small Business Start Up Loans
The best way to find out what grants and loans are available to your business is to contact your home state resources like your local SBA Small Business Administration office representative small business development center ,or state department of revenue office.
Small Business Start Up Loans and Grants
A lot of times chamber of commerces offer free business advice for start-ups through a SCORE representative.
SCORE stands for "Counselors of America's Small Business Owners" Call your local chamber to schedule an appointment.
The SCORE representative or chamber employees can provide you contact information to your local start-up loans and grants resources or introduce you to a bank that can help you with your funding.
The bottom line, funding for start ups is very hard to find. To know the 'key people' makes the job much easier and gives you a higher success rate to get a loan or grant for your small business
