Business Loans for Women - Mish-Mash


Businessloans


Here is a mish-mash of info on small business loans for women. There are a few links to other sources, and a video entitled, “Women in Business”.


Like any business people, the fair sexes have wishes and desires, despite their bad credit record. They might want to start-up a business, or have aspirations to expand their current business.


Such business women are often helped with the work of government aid programs, and financial institutions. Female business entrepreneurs can now borrow funds to carry out their business, and sometimes they can help rebuild their credit scores, via their financial transactions.


Below is a video regarding women in business, and also a ditty from Venture Worthy.


Here is a quote I like on business women from Venture Worthy



In the past decade, the number of women-owned businesses has boomed, and these businesses are just as successful as businesses owned by men.


Women seeking capital to finance their small business ventures can take out loans. Loans are available for women starting up small businesses in all fields-bed and breakfasts, catering, pet supplies photography, record labels, greeting cards, craft businesses, consulting, brokerage, day-care and more.

Some thoughts from Venture Worthy on Businesses and Women:

- The number of women-owned business has increased exponentially over the past ten years.

- Women tend to think and act differently than men when it comes to business, and their non-traditional style of running a company has been successful, and given women a different outlook on possibilities and opportunities.

- Raising start-up capital is important in starting a new business. Some different source of money are friends and family, private or angel investors, venture capital investors, grants and, of course, loans.

- There are loans created especially for women. In some of these loans, applications will focus on your character, credit, experience and reliability rather than assets. These loans can be for as much as $250,000 or more.

- There are also loans specifically created for women with young children who wish to create a business within the home.

Hm... I'll keep this post in mind because I'm looking to run a business soon. I'm ready for the challenge, but I can still use all the help and advice I can get. I've been thinking about buying a business lately instead of starting one from scratch. Maybe a franchise? Home business? I'm not sure. Any suggestions? Advice? Thanks.
