Start saving small sums of money, use it to start a business that doesn't require much capital. Continue the process till you have enough money for your desired business.
This is a solid advice. Most times, we spend most of our time looking for bulk money or millions of USD. It's better we start with the little we have and grow it.

What I did was that I got a job and started saving for capital from the salary I was being paid. It is the easiest and the best way.
It would take a lot of discipline to do that. That's very good if the business doesn't require capital and you don't want the stress if raising it another way.

The only reliable way to raise capital for business is to start saving money or dispose any property you have like land or stocks etc. Apart from these two, it may be difficult to find any source to raise capital that will give you peace of mind. Don't borrow or collect loans to start a business.

Now that we are at the beginning of new year. It is hard to find any firms that would grant loans for the establishment of business. You have to look for how to source funds somewhere.

Basically, all businesses require costs, such as internet costs, devices, either smartphones or laptops, transportation costs, etc. If you want to start a business from scratch, it would be better if you choose a dropshipper business.

If you have a good and feasible business idea, write a good business proposal and present it to venture capitalists. You may have a chance to get them to finance your business.

Its better to start business with very low capital, I have seen many successful businessman those who started from scratch but nowadays this seems to be very difficult.

You can try to get help from friends and family members.
Don't try to start a business with a loan though and make sure you have a good business plan before starting.

Yes sourcing for loans is very difficult now. Best is to start from scratch and raise money gradually till it becomes something tangible.

There are so many platforms where you can start to receive fund for your business and I would prefer to use crowdfunding platform or receiving funds from friends and families.

You breakdown your business to the smallest level you can start at. At that level, the capital requirements should be minimal. Getting a job to save up and start a business is not a bad idea.
