Most companies set as one of their business goals the state of achieving financial stability and creating an operation profitable enough that the owners can begin to achieve at least modest wealth. Business expansion almost always requires an infusion of funding, so there’s a better chance to achieve those goals initially set for the company. Here’s how you can obtain growth capital to fund your business expansion.

Finding Growth Capital

Of course, the key component for obtaining growth capital is finding a willing partner, and that means obtaining some kind of a long-term loan, or a business line of credit which is adequate to fuel the growth you have in mind. Long-term loans are generally more beneficial for entrepreneurs in need of funding, simply because they’re much easier to repay over an extended period of time.

A short-term loan should not be ruled out, but you should be aware that it’s likely to be much harder to make monthly payments on short-term loans since those payments will be considerably higher. If you can obtain a business line of credit which is adequate to your needs, this could be the ideal solution for funding business expansion, because you have a constant supply of revenue. As long as you can keep paying on the balance of your line of credit each month, you will continue to have a ready source of cash which can be used to fuel whatever business growth you have in mind.

Finding a Partner

Any lender who considers providing you with needed funding will want to know that your company is profitable and that you have a proven business model. When you can demonstrate to a lender that you have consistent positive cash flow, a lender is much more likely to look favorably on your application. While your goal is to become more profitable, a lender’s goal is simply to be paid back for a loan, so if you can show a lender that you are a good risk, it won’t be difficult to find a lending partner.
