Raising Start-up Funding

by Chataun Denis on 09/08/13

Can I get a grant to start my business? This is probably the #1 question people ask me. Whether you operate an existing nonprofit/forprofit business or one that it is in the start-up phase, the likelihood of getting a grant for a new project is highly unlikely.   

  

Do not fret, you can get the capital you need to jumpstart your new business or project! All you need is a little ingenuity, creativity, and courage. Crowdfunding is the new fundraising! Learn about it. Use it. Bring your ideas to life!

 

Nonprofits and for-profits alike can use these tools.
Here a few that seem to be the most popular and the easiest to use.
