Through my journeys in business I wanted to help the next big idea, next fledgling company, or next revolutionary entrepreneur get around that learning curve that seems to get us more frustrated than anything. How to gain finances for your business came from very meager means that come from my extensive research over the years. Through this book I put together a how to guide and cut out all the fluff most other books use to bulk up the pages. The places we are going to explorer don't require you to use your personal credit, nor does it require you to be 30 years into a business. These strategies certainly stay away from the traditional bank loan route that has been fed to the public for years. Effort or hard work was not the problem myself and other entrepreneurs took issue with. It was the lack of adequate capital driving us out of the fast lane of success into the non-moving lane of stagnation that many businesses struggle with on a daily bases. I have no illusions that business is not an overnight success. I agree that a successful business endures the marathon and not the sprint. Here is what we will be exploring in this book: Building business credit without needing a personal guarantor Obtaining Assets such as Real Estate without any credit or little to no money Rags to Riches Junk Flipping Using Alternative funding without a bank loan (MCA) Finding Sponsors to foot the bill Networking your way to Partnerships Crowdfunding Selling stocks and bonds with your business Donations and Grants Pre Sale Funding Rollover Financing The government spends millions of dollars of telling us how they want to create jobs and promote small business to grow the economy. The problem with that is that there is no one size fits all strategy for all businesses. The old school traditional rule of thought is to go down to the local bank and ask for a loan. There is no comprehensive or practical guide to obtaining that almighty dollar to startup capital. Until now..
