Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Preface In the eBook " The Excellent Ways to Fund a Business," the best reason for me to write this is to advise many entrepreneurs out there in desperate need of funding. We are all aware that any business needs funds to set it up, run it, grow the company, and sustain its growth. Therefore, funding is a necessity for a business startup. What you will learn in this eBook: How can you find an investor? Why funding is necessary for your business? How you can fundraise for your startup How would you like to impress your investor? What are the reasons why investors dislike you? It is not easy to choose an investor, so I have given some tips about the pros and cons of investors. Let me explain the reasons for the need for funding for your business: https://youtu.be/HpUNzGN4WJ8 Could you set up expenses? Location Production costs, Administration expenses A growing business will need advertising expenses and hiring staff to help your company, product developments, research, and more capital to expand your business. All these show the need for the ongoing condition of money to sustain growth. When your business grows, you will have more income, and you must know how to reinvest your money in your business and share the profits with the investor; I have clearly explained all that in one of the chapters. Impressing an investor is not that easy. They are all intelligent entrepreneurs who can easily detect your mistakes and start to dislike you. Then, you will miss that opportunity. Then, pay attention to your business plan and financial statements to produce when you meet with an investor, and the bank will also require that from you if you plan to get a loan for your startup—the tips to motivate you to find funding for your business. Thank you for picking up my eBook; please remember to leave a helpful review if you like it.

Download or read book Why Startups Fail written by Tom Eisenmann and published by Currency. This book was released on 2021-03-30 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you want your startup to succeed, you need to understand why startups fail. “Whether you’re a first-time founder or looking to bring innovation into a corporate environment, Why Startups Fail is essential reading.”—Eric Ries, founder and CEO, LTSE, and New York Times bestselling author of The Lean Startup and The Startup Way Why do startups fail? That question caught Harvard Business School professor Tom Eisenmann by surprise when he realized he couldn’t answer it. So he launched a multiyear research project to find out. In Why Startups Fail, Eisenmann reveals his findings: six distinct patterns that account for the vast majority of startup failures. • Bad Bedfellows. Startup success is thought to rest largely on the founder’s talents and instincts. But the wrong team, investors, or partners can sink a venture just as quickly. • False Starts. In following the oft-cited advice to “fail fast” and to “launch before you’re ready,” founders risk wasting time and capital on the wrong solutions. • False Promises. Success with early adopters can be misleading and give founders unwarranted confidence to expand. • Speed Traps. Despite the pressure to “get big fast,” hypergrowth can spell disaster for even the most promising ventures. • Help Wanted. Rapidly scaling startups need lots of capital and talent, but they can make mistakes that leave them suddenly in short supply of both. • Cascading Miracles. Silicon Valley exhorts entrepreneurs to dream big. But the bigger the vision, the more things that can go wrong. Drawing on fascinating stories of ventures that failed to fulfill their early promise—from a home-furnishings retailer to a concierge dog-walking service, from a dating app to the inventor of a sophisticated social robot, from a fashion brand to a startup deploying a vast network of charging stations for electric vehicles—Eisenmann offers frameworks for detecting when a venture is vulnerable to these patterns, along with a wealth of strategies and tactics for avoiding them. A must-read for founders at any stage of their entrepreneurial journey, Why Startups Fail is not merely a guide to preventing failure but also a roadmap charting the path to startup success.

Book excerpt: For most people thinking of starting up in business, the biggest obstacle is how to raise the funds to get the business off the ground. This is the book to take the pain out of financing your start up – it explains all the possible sources of funding, and their pros and cons, before helping you work out how much you actually need, then what to say and do to land that investment. This is the book that provides the facts, the figures and the reassurances you need to make the right decisions for you and your business. It covers everything from finding investors, persuading them to back you, the principles of giving away equity and bootstrap start ups at very low cost – and everything in between. For each possible source of funding, from re-mortgaging and loans, business angels and venture capitalists, to some of the lesser known (and not advised) techniques like the “5 card trick”, we’ll walk through: what each is looking for; whether this is the right route for you; how best to find them and pitch to them successfully; how much they might be willing to lend; questions they will ask and questions you should ask. How to Fund your Business takes the fear out of finance, and looks at what happens if it all goes wrong and you need to borrow more – plus where you stand financially if the worst happens and the business doesn’t work. It’s also packed with advice to help you make sure this doesn’t happen, with vital sections on accurate budgeting and forecasting and managing cashflow so you don’t run out of money. Timelines show clearly at what point each type of investor will want their money back, and at what cost, to make sure you have no surprises along the way.
