People normally think about their own funds as being the money they have already in savings, other assets such as available equity in their homes, 401Ks, personal loans. But the savvy entrepreneur creates revenue quickly to build the business. So often one hears excuses for not getting into the market, like I have not yet finished the business plan, the prototype is not perfected... but it is very often possible to get selling sooner than you think. It may be a matter of selling services before physical products are ready, or selling early variants of the product at special prices in exchange for help with modifications. Equally early sales especially can be made with payment up front, with or without a discount. Since cash is what matters early on, every effort should be made to pull it in. well done Will Hi,

Well, I'm absolutely agree with these ways, and I agree most is in #1. Self-funding , it is true in the sense that, you can't fund a business through owning another's money but your money. The money from your own savings. Anyways, great post! This could be very helpful and useful. Best of luck, -Sweet Apple- Hi,
