It’s the age-old conundrum: You need money to make money. So, how to find the cash to get going on your dream business, so you can jump into the game?

Once you get started, you can get clients, bringing in more cash. But you’ve got to get started first. It starts with faith in yourself: You are a powerful and resourceful individual. You can have anything if you truly want it.

Next, you need ideas on where to find the money. Here are 10 ways to create business capital to get your business off the ground:

1. Get a business loan. Locally owned banks and other lending institutions traditionally help entrepreneurs get started.

2. Find an Angel Investor. These are private investors who may help you get started. Check out http://www.angelbusinessloans.com/ or Google “Angel Investor.” You might also try www.prosper.com for other private lenders.

3. Take on an extra part time job, or do work on the side. This is a great way to fund your new business until it gets going. Check out www.taskrabbit.com for side jobs of all kinds to make some quick cash.

4. Tap into Retirement accounts or other investments. Remember, your business is an investment in YOU, so you’re simply transferring one investment to another, where you expect a higher return.

5. Use low-interest credit cards, or “no interest for 6 months” credit cards. Once you get your first few clients, you’ll be able to pay them off, probably before any interest kicks in with a no interest offer.

6. Sell Your Stuff. Clothes, jewelry, cars, furniture, kitchen items, etc. Have a garage sale. Or, sell stuff you make!

7. Talk to Family and Friends. Remember, this isn’t an expense. It’s an investment. A supportive friend or family member may be thrilled to loan you the start-up capital to get your business off the ground. They might even gift it to you!

8. Trim your Budget. Research to make sure you have the best deals on everything in your area. It’s amazing how you can cut your phone, cable, internet, cell phone, Tivo, Netflix, when you try. Call them up and tell them you need to save money, and ask for a lower rate, package or to get a current promotion price. Most of them will do it!

PG&E has a low-income program to lower your bill. You can cut your food bill by looking at the ads for “loss-leaders” and buying what’s on sale.

9. Get a Home Equity Line of Credit, or Refinance. It depends on your mortgage and your situation, but it’s worth checking out to see what the current status is of your home value and mortgage.

10. Use the Law of Attraction. Simply decide that you’re going to move forward on your business and know the money is coming. The Universe will scramble to produce the money, because you’re expecting it. That’s how it works!
