VENTURE CAPITAL FINANCING This method can provide FREE MONEY in the sense you wouldn't have to pay it back. You would, however, probably have to give up part of the ownership of your business in order to receive financing. Most states have their own venture capital finance firms that invest in high risk businesses. MINORITIES & WOMEN FREE MONEY grants are available in most states for women or minorities who want to start a business. LOW INTEREST LOANS A state may raise money through industrial revenue bonds to buy your fixed-asset equipment. The public, which invest in these bonds, do not pay taxes on the earned interest. When a low interest loan is granted, the state does not guarantee that investors will get their money back if the business fails. If a state issues a general obligation bond, a public investment is then guaranteed. the states will also make direct loans at low interest, or even co-sign a commercial bank loan. If a state co-signs a loan for you, it may subsidize your interest and reduce an already low-interest rate lower yet. SMALL BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT CENTERS Every state has Small Business development Centers who can match you with the right FREE MONEY grant program. All development centers offer free counseling to anyone wishing to start or expand a business. Their services are varied but include; FREE seminars, workshops, business planning, feasibility studies, marketing research, management analysis, sales technique, financing, exporting, inventory control, accounting, record keeping, and grant application. Whatever your questions about FREE MONEY grants or starting a business, refer to your telephone directory under State Offices and contact your Small Business development Center. GETTING FREE MONEY FROM VENTURE CAPITAL SOURCES A venture capital company is another source for FREE MONEY in financing your business plans. But since they are willing to assume some risk by investing in your business, they also expect some equity in the business itself. Venture capital companies invest in projects they feel will be successful and bring a return on their investment. If you are interested in asking a venture capital company to invest in your business refer to your telephone directory under Venture Capital Companies or Investment Companies, and contact those who are in the same area you want to start your project in. SMALL BUSINESS INVESTMENT COMPANIES Small business investment companies can provide your business with the capital it needs by; 1) giving you a free loan; 2) making a stock investment in your business; or 3) offering a combination of the two. Small business investment companies are in the business of making money just like any other business. The biggest difference between them and another investor is: 1) They are privately managed firms who are licensed and partially financed by the federal government's Small Business Administration. 2) All of its transactions are regulated by the government. 3) Their success depends on the growth and profits of companies they own stock in. They often give money in exchange for stocks. 4) Their loans usually carry lower interest rates than commercial banks. 5) Straight loans repayments are carried over a longer period of time. 6) Most businesses are eligible, especially if they are 50% minority owned.

WRITING A SUCCESSFUL GRANT APPLICATION To write a successful grant application for FREE MONEY it should be well planned. You should be familiar with exactly how a particular agency prefers to have their grant proposals completed. If you have no experience in writing grant proposals, this is another area where your Small Business development centers can help. WORK CLOSELY WITH THE FREE MONEY GRANTOR AGENCY Once you decide which government agency you want FREE MONEY from, contact them and ask for a grant application. Get to know some of the grantor agency personal. Experts love to talk about their programs, so ask for advice, suggestions, and criticisms about your proposed project. In most cases, the more the agency knows about your grant proposal, the better your chances will be of getting support from the personnel who ultimately approve your FREE MONET request. Often it is to the grantor's advantage to send their grant proposal summary to an agency official they have developed a contact relationship with, and ask them to review and return it to you with their comments. Be certain this approach is acceptable with your agency. You wouldn't first want a first draft mistakenly processed before it was finished. Making a personal visit to the agency's office in your area is also important. Face to face contact will help you understand eligibility requirements, deadlines, maximum FREE MONEY amounts you can apply for, and other details you want to know about. You can also utilize an agency's library and determine through books, brochures, and conversation if there are other agencies you could apply for FREE MONEY. there is nothing that says that you can't apply for, two three, or more FREE MONEY grants at one time! ESTABLISH YOUR OWN PROFESSIONAL NETWORK Do some networking and maintain continuous contact with people who can gather information for you about FREE MONEY GRANTS. Nothing can be substituted for personal contact with the decision makers who are in charge of grant programs. Learn to use your personal influence (and theirs) to achieve your goals. The US. Government Printing Office maintains a wealth of information that people never take advantage of! Write to them and ask for a copy of the "U.S. Government Directory" and ask for a list of books, brochures, and documents that covers your field of interest. Tell them you are especially interested in obtaining information about FREE FEDERAL MONEY that's available to private citizens. Remember, "FREE FEDERAL MONEY" doesn't mean you have to travel to Washington, DC. It just means finding out where the agencies are within your own state and local government. The contacts you want to make may be only minutes away.
