I would employ only myself and I would be providing a service. After careful evaluation, i believe my start up costs to come in around $4000.00. I don’t want to borrow money because I dont want to start off in the hole. Every search i have done on the internet looking for grants, has only produced a list of people who want to sell me a list of possible grants. can anyone tell me where to look for a grant. sba does not provide money for start ups. hoping to hear from strong, motivated woman who have taken this step before me. thanks for any info or advice you might have.

Within 2 weeks of launching, Jane Magazine expressed interest & contacted us, and an online men’s magazine did a write-up about our men’s products.

Well, Jane went under before featuring our prods & we can’t afford to pay anybody to use our cosmetics in fashion editorials, which would give us maximum exposure & cost 70% less than outright advertising. The Co. also needs to hire a professional manager w/ industry experience to manage the Co.

I’m a black woman with $3,000 worth of debt over her head. The 3 grand comes from delinquent college loans in collections. What are my chances of getting any capital for my business at this point?

I am not only a woman but a black woman & the company sells from it’s online site for the moment.
My credit isn’t very good because 2 college loans have gone to collects. I owe a little over $3,000. Do I have a chance?

THANK YOU!
VAL, that was a really sweet comment. Talk about starting at the top. Oprah?:) But actually, the business it’self is not in debt. “I” am the one in debt…or do they count it as the same thing?
