Crowdfunding is like a community coming together to support your business dreams. You can create a crowdfunding campaign on platforms like Kickstarter or Indiegogo and ask people to contribute small amounts of money towards your project or business. In return, they might receive a reward or a stake in your company.
• Grants and Subsidies
Grants and subsidies are like gifts from the heavens for small businesses. They are funds provided by governments, organizations, or foundations to support specific types of businesses or initiatives. These funds don't have to be repaid, making them an attractive financing option for SMEs.
