I've been researched the costs, prepared my financial spreadsheet, and have contacted a handful of mall representatives to get an idea of what the rent would cost for a 3 month short term lease to test my idea on the market. After all this, I've finally come up with the amount I'd need to start up (under 50k) and now need to begin raising capital to get things rolling. Banks are out of the question because of my lack of credit history (despite 700+ credit scores) and unfortunately, despite everyone I've talked to loving the idea, my family is not part of that group and therefore won't even cosign a loan to help me get off the ground. I've seem to hit a roadblock on how to go about raising capital and any advice for this business newbie would be greatly appreciated. :wave:
