Most of the money needed to start a new business comes from the entrepreneur and his or her family.
One in five Americans has invested in a business of someone they knew.
More than 50 percent lend financial support to the business of a family member.
Twenty nine percent give money to neighbors and friends.
Financing
A Venture capital is money provided by large investors to finance new products and new businesses that have a good chance to be profitable.
Venture capital
In the late 1990s, many venture capital companies were formed.
They supplied more than $100 billion each year to new businesses.
Many of those businesses were e-commerce and high-tech start-ups.
When many of those companies failed, the amount of venture capital declined to less than $22 million in 2005.
Venture capital
New and small businesses produce a large volume of goods and services for the economy.
Businesses with just a single owner and no staff account for more than $600 billion in sales annually.
Small businesses are responsible for more than half of the U.S. gross domestic product each year.
Productivity
Before deciding to start a business, you need to think about the opportunities and risks.
Opportunities and Risks
The American private enterprise economy promotes innovation and new business development.
Individuals are able to take risks to start a new business.
Consumers are always looking for new and better choices to meet their wants and needs.
New Business Opportunities
An innovation is an invention or creation that is brand new.
Innovation
An improvement is a design change that increases the usefulness of a product, service, or process.
Improvement
Inventors often develop innovations. Those innovations may become the basis of a new business.
The inventor may sell them to another company for development and sale.
Examples of well-known innovations: Steve Jobs and Stephen Wozniak (Apple
Computer) Arthur Fray and Spencer Silver (Post-it Notes)
Inventors
The National Federation of Independent Business reports that of all new businesses, about one-third are profitable, one-third do not make a profit, but continue to operate, and the remaining third lose money.

Over a 10-year period, more than 50 percent of all new businesses are discontinued.
Recognizing Risks
Lack of adequate capital Low sales Higher than expected expenses Competitive pressure An owner unprepared to manage a
growing business Operations requiring more time than

sources.Hobbies, interests, and business
experiences often give people ideas for new businesses.

An Idea Plus Experience
Putting your business idea into action means the right place to open the business.
Most retail businesses need good customer traffic.
Timing is another key factor in starting a business.
Most successful businesses start during a period when customer demand for certain products or services is high.
Right Place and Time
A business is not easy to run without the help of others.
Even the smallest businesses need a few full- or part-time employees to grow or cover extended hours.
Choosing the “team” members becomes one of the most important initial business decisions.
Small business owners will need specialized help from bankers, lawyers, and accountants.
Team Approach
The most important step in starting a business is preparation.
Preparation includes having enough information to make good decisions about the business.
Time spent gathering and studying information before the business is started.
Information is needed about customers, competitors, important operations, government regulations, and many other topics.
Presentation and Research
A business plan is a written description of the business idea and how it will be carried out, including all major business activities.
Key features of a business plan are a general description of the company, the credentials of the owner(s), a description of the product or service, an analysis of the market, and a financial plan.
