I am a banker, and without security, you will not get a loan. \n\nJust a bit more information, the highest risk is the restaurant industry, because it is a very fickle business, high turnover and lots of possibilty of pilferage (theft) from employees. \n\nThe equipment has a very low resale value, less than 60 cents on the dollar to re-sell.  Which is why lots of liquidators have old restaurant equipment & supplies for sale. \n\nAt the minimum, you will need to guarantee your loan, which means your net worth (assets) must exceed your borrowing.\n\nIn the restaurant industry, your labour costs (to pay employees is the highest expense).  You need to look at their whole business report, including their balance sheet to see the net income of the company. (what is left over, after all expenses have been paid).  \n\nGood luck to you.

you can go to your bank and take out a business loan, ask for a loan from a relative or friend (no interest that way lol) or you can apply for a business grant. the grant usually is the hard way to go because there is alot of paper work involved. the best bet is to draw up a business plan for what you are trying to accomplish and present it to your bank and apply for a business loan. make sure your business plan is accurate and complete because the bank wants to know what you are going to be doing with the money and they definatly want to know how your going to be paying it back.  everything should be ok.  good luck on your business journey.

First, check for laws in your state regarding these types of business. Second, choose the right web page providers that will suit best that type of business and the one that best suits your budget. If you dont have the right money to start one, you can get a loan with the lowest interest rate in your hometown or state.

try this. no investment required. no inventory to keep. no quotas to meet. fun and easy to do.\n\nhttp://www.stuffafriend.biz/members/xtnl...\n\nof course, like with any other business, though, the amount and quality of work you put in will be reflected in the income that you will make. so you can choose to work a little or work alot, it's really all up to you.

You have 2 loan purposes.  You may get a signature loan or a collateral loan to pay off small debts.  But I think you need a business start up loan for the business.  SBA or SCORE have a great business program to help you write up the plan to ask for a loan.\n\nOr you can meet with a venture capitalist.  My brother had a great idea for software and got a million dollar offer for investment.  It didn't go through but you don't give up if you have true vision.

There is a huge difference between  bankers and venture capitalists. And I'm not just referring to the cost of borrowing so tread cautiously here.\n\nBefore I can provide you with advice I need a little more information. How long have you been in business?  About how many people work there?  Why do you need the money?\n\nJust a quick note " fund some of our operations " might suggest you need money just to keep the business open. If this is not the case it may be better to delete this part of your question.

It naturally depends on what your starting capital is - and what your investment horizon is. Thus if you already have $1mn in the bank, and you leave it in a check account which yields 1% p.a., then after one year the bank will add $10,000 to your account :)

I think  you'll need to invest a lot more money than that. If you earn 6% (which is about the average annual gain on an investment) you are only gaining 30,000 pounds a year, and when you withdraw that money from it, you'll lose a good portion of it to taxes and such, probably close to 1/2 of it.

Depends on where you are. \n\nSee here in the philippines the only loaning thing here is for small business units. They gove loans up to 5m or if your business plan is really good it can be up to 10m...\n\nSometimes the most important thing in your business plan or study is the ROI and stability.

You need a business plan.  Investors and lenders will want to know how you intend to make money.  They will want to see all the details, from where you will be located, how much rent you will pay, how many employees you will have, how much will you pay them, how much will employee benefits and insurance cost, where will you get the raw materials for your widgets, how much will the raw materials cost, what are your projected sales, projected cost of goods sold, tax liabilities, interest expense, return on investement, marketing plan, etc.\n\nIf you can prepare a 5-year plan, working out all the details and showing that you know how you will make money and how much money based on projected sales, then people may have the confidence in you to invest.

Hi there.  The taxation system here seems complicated - I'm in the process of looking for work in France.  The rates depend on your family situation and whether you are self employed or employed.  It is bureaucratic to register here as a business and there is a crackdown on people who are working for 'cash in hand'.  National Insurance contributions are high - up to 40% and then there is income tax on top (maybe 20%) + you will need to top up on health insurance.  If you are getting an income from UK - say from a property rental or investments then that would need to be declared in France.  If you aren't fully resident here then you can continue to pay your taxes in England under the common agreement (can't remember its name). I don't have all the answers yet by any means, but like you, have taken the plunge!  Most ex-pats I know have used the David Hampshire books as their starting point but you might need specialist advice.  Living France and other such magazines have listings and there are Anglo-info websites for the regions with contacts too.  All the very best with your move.

If you're in the UK contact your local business link, they're really helpful. Also may sure you speak to any creditors, you need to keep on the right side of them. You haven't said what your business is, but as your creditors will be as keen as you are to make sure they get their cash they may be able to offer valuable business information or leads. Business communities are often quite insular (if thats the right word). Your landlord may also have a better property in a more suitable location if you ask. If they do help make sure you reward them once you're back on track.\nLook at your budgets and keep them on track. Spend nothing you don't need to. Sales reps will even give you free pens etc.\nAdvertising doesn't need to cost anything. Do something for charity and involve the press, tell friends and family what you're doing, get out on the street and fake a survey but mention your business, etc.\nIf you have any staff ask their opinion, they're your greatest asset, again make sure they're rewarded if they do well.\nFinally a major word of advice to anyone in business - work out who your customers are and look after them. They are your paycheck. remember you are buying money from them with goods or services so you need them to come back.\n\nThere's loads you can do but you need to have a positive attitude - make every pound you spend on your business make money.\n\nThat should do for now.

Get registered as self employed with the tax office. Go see a business startup specialist in a Bank.  One of the best banks out there from personal experience were Barclays they have a team of business specialists they can provide loads of info including Starting and running your own business guides on CD Rom and information fact sheets, there are other sources of information you can obtain through Business Link too. \n\nBanks usually lend on a matched funding basis to new businesses, ie 50/50 but only if you can provide a cashflow projection and business plan up front.  If you have already bought equipment to use for your business and can produce receipts this would be included in your 50%\n\nYou sound like a hardworker, working for yourself is not always easy and does demand your time and effort, from what you have said you have no objections to doing this.  The benefit obviously being that any money you make (less any deductions) is your own clear profit not someone elses.\n\nAnyhow, best of luck!
