I want to start a pesticide business here in N. California. I thiink the market is ripe for affordable, locally owned business.

 

With all the govt bailout & stimulus money, how can I tap into it? I don't need zillions, only about $50k.

 

Where can I go to get a govt loan/handout/etc to get the business going?

 

Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated!

 

Thank you very much.

 

Bruce

Unfortunately, there are no grants for starting a for-profit business from Federal and state government agencies, nor are there grants for small business owners through the Recovery Act. For more information on the reality of government grants - as well as some alternative financing opportunities, check out these articles: I Need Money - Where do I get it? The Truth About Government Grants Have you seen these 10 Steps to Start a Business? I would begin there, and learn more about financing that is available to you (step 4) as you develop your business plan. Best of luck, NicoleD
