Getting Finance for a Hairdressers Business

Do you want to own your own Hairdresser’s but your worried you can’t raise the finance needed for paying rent on the building, stock and equipment, insurance, marketing, accounting and payroll if you employ staff as well or taxes you will have to pay for your business. There will also be other hidden costs along you journey of setting up your business or expanding your hairdresser’s business.

The first place most people will look for finance is a bank for a bank loan, the problem with bank loans is that the bank will want you to put some of your own money down as well as the bank charging you high interest rates which most start-up businesses and businesses that are struggling will find it hard to pay back the interest alone. Below are some ideas where you could get finance for your hairdresser’s business: -

• Your Savings
• Friends and Family
• Bank Loans
• Credit Card
• Home Equity
• Business Angel Investors
• Venture Capitalists

Before you think of contacting a bank for a loan, venture capitalist or business angel investor for finance backing you should have a well laid out business plan. You need to be able to show them that you have every avenue covered from what happens if your business loses money in the first year and what you would do, to what kind of service you will offer your customers, will it just be hairdresser’s or will you offer manicures, pedicures, tanning booths etc. as well what colouring techniques you will offer to your customers.

Business Angels help new businesses with the help of finance and business advice, as they have been there and able to advice you on the best methods to bring in customers look after your customers as well as making a profit. They will also help businesses that are struggling to keep afloat with the help of finance and advice when most banks etc wouldn’t take a bit of interest. They are most likely to be entrepreneurs that have a successful business of their own and they will use their money to help your business succeed and make returns on their investment.

Venture Capitalists help larger businesses with problems of finance, they will offer financially help and advice but will be more of a silent partner than a business angel who will get more involved.
