Startup financing overview

- Let's move into financing options for start ups. If your business is young, and that typically means less than a year old, sometimes less than two years old, you may have to get creative about your startup financing. Remember earlier in this course, we pointed out that your options are quite limited, if your business is less than a year old, especially if you don't have really strong revenues. Then you have even more options after your business is two years old. The most common sources of startup funding options include friends and family, personal loans, retirement funds, angel funded or venture capital, and credit cards. We'll go into more detail on each.
