Having nothing and hoping for someone to fund your business? Impossible.

[Fidelia]

I have met people that have pitched business ideas to me but they don't have anything to use and start the business. They expect an investor to see the idea worthy enough to invest their money. No one would fund a business that you don't have anything at all to start.

Businesses often seek funding to fuel growth, cover operational costs, and seize new opportunities. Funding provides the necessary capital to expand, innovate, and compete effectively in the market. Without external funding, many businesses may struggle to achieve but you need to have something to show

These days it is becoming very rare to see people who would want to invest in your ideas completely from scratch.

 

[Starmix]

Those people who have a good idea must take action to meet the required capital. They cannot find someone to invest for their favor.

 

[Stardom22]

Of course yes. I have realised that most people with brilliant business ideas are always broke and never start businesses for the lack of funds. While on the other hand the people with money lack good business ideas for sure.

If you don't believe in your business enough for you to sacrifice something to raise start-up capital, don't expect anyone to invest in that business.

 

[Kera]

When you have a business idea, you should have at least 40% of the startup capital at the time you meet an investor for support.

Relying solely on external funding without personal investment or a strong business foundation can present significant risks it can lead to a lack of control, increased pressure from people

When you don't have anything to start your business, you would always find it hard to convince any investor.

 

[Springtime]

If you are looking for people to invest in your business, you have to prepare a detailed proposal and business plan with details of the product, target markets, capital required, operating costs and projected sales revenue. Without such information, no investors will be interested.

 

[Augusta]

Start by funding the business yourself through savings, side hustles, or by minimizing initial expenses.

 

[Trush Jodie]

You have to be running the business at some level before someone would be convinced enough to invest in it to help it.

People that love to invest in the businesses of others prefer to invest in businesses that already run somehow. That's less risky for them.
