Peer-to-peer lending, a well-used means of generating financial backing, has taken the next logical, evolutionary step into what is now known as crowdfunding. Wed, 23 Nov 2011 08:00:01 GMT http://www.funder.org/crowd-funding/#14 Small Business Loans http://www.funder.org/revenue-loans/ In the new economy it can be very difficult or impossible for a small business owner or entrepreneur to find capital to support the development of new ideas. Historically, small businesses and entrepreneurs have sought capital through "Angel" investors and traditional lending institutions like banks. Unfortunately, these common options are increasingly unavailable to even well established businesses. The revenue-based finance (revenue based financing) model - sometimes called royalty-based financing - is a financing plan that was introduced over 50 years ago and is gaining popularity today. The revenue based financing model provides unique benefits to both the small business and the investor.

The current small business lending situation is quite the contrary; there are options available, and small businesses on the hunt for growth capital should consider the following alternative financing sources.

Today's angels are a key ingredient in financing small business development, not only in the U.S., but around the globe. It is vital that fledgling companies on the hunt for capital funding understand the importance of the angel investor's contribution; these business benefactors have effectively bridged the wide financing gap between "friends and family" and venture capital, that dreary-gray investment area between a few thousand dollars and $1 to $2 million.

You might need general office equipment, such as computers or a telephone system, or perhaps you need delivery vehicles or industry-specific equipment. When you're deciding on the ideal equipment to acquire, you should also consider the benefits of leasing in comparison to buying your equipment outright, or financing a purchase.

Many small business owners require loans for a new business, to provide working capital funding or purchase equipment.

Established businesses may end up needing to borrow money for new equipment or to replace uninsured losses. The Small Business Administration (SBA) is a government organization designed to help out.
