The number one reason most entrepreneurs don’t start their own business is because of funding or lack thereof. Entrepreneurs spend an average of $70,000 to start a business, while only 30 percent will last three years and 50 percent will fail after five years.
Finding sources of funding can be a real hassle, but in the US, small businesses generated $7.8 trillion in revenue, and up to 80 percent of all new jobs were created by startup companies. Don’t let the figures about failing deter you from pursuing your dreams. Just find innovative ways to finance your business.
