I need help with money for my business

Hi I’m Cindy Smith and I have a web site that sells Wedding and Bridal Shower Favors plus invitations, and other items for baby shower favors.
I do ok with these items, but I need working capital to market my site better. I need money to make brochures, buy more supplies, and money to do better on search engine marketing. I’m a grandmother that lives a very moderate life that is just trying to keep a roof over my head. I have GREAT products and I need more exposure to sell more. I know that It would take off better with more marketing. I just need money to do it. Please go on to my site and take a look www.fairyhollowgiftshop.com
Can anyone help me out there? I can’t get a small business loan because of my credit.
Thank you so much, Cindy Smith

Grants for Women Starting a Small Business

I am living in a small rural town. I would like to start up a small business to help revive a small dying town. Are there any govt grant programs or other programs where I could get funds to help me get started? I have a small amount of capital to start with, a business plan and a probable location. My problem is because of wage cuts and economic conditions my credit score is very very low. I have managed to get all past due bills and credit cards paid off but the climb to get my credit score back up to get a loan is going to be long and slow. Any help or advice would be appreciated to help finds funds to get my business and ideas off the ground.

About women_in_business

It is important for women in business to do what we do best, network!

I created this space for all you entrepreneurs or busy moms that are looking for a legitimate and viable source of income to come to.  After all, the best attribute of being female is our ability to come together and to share our experiences, wisdom and skills with our family and friends.  So make that strength a key factor when it comes to your business.  Why reinvent the wheel when time is an issue, babies need to be fed and food is cooking in the oven?  I say, let's not reinvent the wheel...rather let's make it more modern, more efficient and better!

And a special note to full time housewives and homemakers: 

You are such a blessing and a key asset.  Did you know that the estimated average salary for what you mommies do is equivalent to around $75,000 - $120,000?  Nannies who care for one baby gross about $75k/year.  And that does not include cooking, cleaning and all the things you do.  So be proud, hold your chin high, for to impart your love, time and devotion to your children will impact the world so much more than you can imagine!  But if you find that extra income is something you'd like to have as well, why not?  This is the place to be. 

So tell us your dreams, your vision and your goals.  For this is the place for it.

So please, let's post ideas, advice, wisdoms, do's and don'ts and anything you can think of, from business ventures and opportunities for women, to loans and grants and anything that will help to empower women today!
