Small business start up funding can be some of the hardest money to get for your company but also some of the most essential for your businesses survival. Start up funding can be hard to acquire because often there is no track record of financial performance and that alone makes possible investors very wary. this is because banks and other lending institutions (including venture capital firms  and angel investors) are risk averse. Usually they will want to see at least a short financial history that shows revenue growth and increasing interest in your product or service. For this reason, seed money usually comes form friends, family and credit cards. This can cause undue stress on the start up and can make family reunions awkward. Because of this, many start up businesses try to avoid mixing business with family and friends. It's amazing how fast a defaulting loan can tear apart a friendship.

To combat this problem many business owners look to venture capital firms and angel investors who are willing to invest in start up companies. to learn more about these companies click on the link below.
