Funding your business may require you to apply for a loan. Otherwise, you may opt for an investor to fund your business instead. Attracting investors may be done with the use of a good business plan. After which, the problem will lie on locating investors who will be willing to invest.



There are various ways to look for investors; the easiest of which is through your personal connections. In fact, family members who are financially capable of investing are good people to start presenting your business plan. Moreover, family friends or college friends and colleagues looking for ways to make profit may be interested in your business venture.



Another way is to advertise. Finding investors with credible backgrounds are of utmost importance. These potential investors are also on the lookout for promising business concepts and they may very well be looking for something to invest on in the classifieds---where some are seen to make their need to invest known to the public. Also, some have also been able to locate investors this way. Just make sure that your investor won�t end up stealing your business concept and start the business themselves.



Investors may sometimes offer more than financial help in ensuring the success of your business. This is especially true when your investor specializes in the same field or industry that your business caters to.

These investors know the market very well through experience and may be able to give you sound advice on how to run the business. Also, as they invest their money in your business, they will be very concerned with the status of the business and with the return of their investment.Restaurant startup costs cannot be overlooked!
