I am expanding my business. I am taking my products, new products etc. and want to lease a space for my store. Sadly, I don't have enough money to cover inventory etc. and have looked u p grants, etc. I am too afraid to take out a loan. My husband and I have a mortgage, retail property (no mortgage...but hubby WILL NOT take out a line of credit on it despite that it has lots), and student loans from grad school. Any advice?

I am looking for someone to partner with myself. Someone who would let me do a store window with my clothing line personally.
I think partnering is your best bet...it's a costly venture.
Bank of America if you open a business account with them, also will help you with small business administration forms.
For a $100.00 you can open a business account.
I have decided to go with the consignment idea. Less headache and I can lease a space. I do need to advertise and get some people to advertise their goods.
Awesome! and congratulations.... I also have started my own business which is Promote Me Club if you need assistance with promoting your business or advertising let me know and maybe we can build our businesses hand in hand. I wish you the best! Checkout me out on facebooktwitter and my blog
Please let me know when you find the answer to this question!!! I have been looking for it for the last two weeks, diligently. I need the same scenario. What is your business?
You thought about doing flea markets or swapmeets to raise the money also craft shows or events were you can be a vendor. Maybe you can share a space with someone who may already have store. You can also do consignment.
