Hi all,
I want to start my own web design / development company,
I've been working in the industry for over 12 years and want to start my own thing.
I've never owned a business. I've done loads of freelancing etc but I want something with my own office / and hire a few people.
Obviously this is going to cost money. I don't have the personal finance to fund this and wanted to know what the correct / best road is to go?
Is there funding out there that will cover wages / renting etc until the company can afford to take over?
I know are some grants for startup but not 100% what these grants cover and how much they are
And finally a loan. I've a fear of this as i'm not sure how this works, and while i don't want the company to fail before it even starts all i can think of is if i get a loan to start this and it doesn't take off i'll be left with massive loan on my head.
any advice would be great.
thanks.
