Use a Home Equity Line of Credit
with a 5-10 year draw period — use the line as start-up capital to get your business up and going
see Account Management Suggestions below

Use:

You Know You Have the Talent . . .
plus the experience and know-how to start your own business. But you need some capital. Why not look at the equity in your home equity as a place to start?

You can use your Home Equity Line of Credit as a "Business Starter".

Use it as working capital to:

·  finance your ideas
·  acquire a new computer
·  pay for vendor services
·  maintain a positive cash flow
·  purchase important equipment
·  launch a business web site

And while you're at it:

·  renovate your home office
·  consolidate your personal bills
·  you decide: ________________

Why:

Your Home Equity Line lets you become the banker.

Simply advance yourself the capital you need . . . when you need it.

You will pay interest only on the amount you borrow, which interest cost may be fully deducted as a business expense. Consult your tax advisor for information.

Now wouldn't this be a smart way to get your business off the ground. You control the funds ... as you need ... when you need ... without the hassle of convincing the bank or others to extend you funds.

And once your business get going, use your positive cash flow to pay down the account. Just keep your equity line open as an emergency account when times get slow.

Now!, this smart financial management.

Suggestions on Managing Your Account

  1. Start with an approved home equity line account
    from a lending institution.

  2. Open up a business checking account
    Additionally, we suggest that you get your personal pre-paid credit card for online and merchant purchases (best for budget control and fraud protection)

    see how the pre-paid credit card can work for business

  3. Advance working capital as you need
    from your equity line account to your business checking account and pre-paid credit card

  4. Make notation that working capital has been received
    for your business on your book ledgers. You will also note in your ledgers:

    ·   expenses paid
    ·   interest charges
    ·   all other related business items to operate your business
       
    ·

    you may need an account software to maintain your records and receipts
