While the job market has rebounded significantly since its low during the recession doldrums, many looking to return to the workforce are still faced with significant challenges. One of the biggest challenges is that for many, the problem isn’t finding just any job, the problem is finding the right job — one that could be the beginning of a career that they are proud of. While the total number of available jobs has risen, it has become harder for many to find quality jobs to be excited about.
For both those who are being selective about their employment choices and those who have skillsets for which demand has waned, there is another option. This option provides career potential and room for unlimited growth and is far easier to pursue than most aspiring entrepreneurs and businesspeople think.
This option is, of course, starting your own small business. Especially since 2010, raising the capital necessary to get a business off of the ground has been a major obstacle. While entrepreneurs and businesspeople face plenty of obstacles to getting funded, including lack of a track record, cash flow and formal business qualifications, there are companies that specialize in helping you through business funding.
Funding Option #1: The SBA
The SBA is set up specifically to help aspiring entrepreneurs create the companies that will be the future backbone of the economy. While logistics and paperwork for applying through the SBA can be overwhelming to novices, they aren’t alone. For instance, companies like Claris Finance have experience dealing with qualifying for SBA loans and can help you through the application process.
Funding Option #2: Commercial Financing
If your business doesn’t qualify for an SBA loan, or if you’d rather deal with private lenders, you still have plenty of options. There are a wide variety of commercial financing products available for those who qualify. From lines of credit to installment loans, there is a fit for all types of businesses. While some of these options are available through your regular bank, most find that a digital lender that understands small business needs to be a better fit.
Funding Option #3: Non-conventional Financing
Because of credit constriction in the wake of the recession, more and more startups and small businesses have turned to non-conventional financing structures to meet their needs. They often qualify without a lengthy credit history, excellent credit scores, or prior business experience. The terms of non-conventional financing and an easy application process often make it a far better fit for their type of business as well. It’s easy to apply for these alternative types of funding from the comfort of your home or office.

Rather than waiting weeks and months for the perfect job to open up and then crossing your fingers that you land it, create your own perfect job.
