Hi All!!

Ok here`s the run down condensed, I`m a 38 year old single mother, I just lost my job and have no other income. I have always wanted my own small bakery and diner. I want more than anything to be able to get the ball rolling on making my dream come true but..... I have no idea where to start. Like I said, I have the time to make it happen but I nooooooo funds available to me. Is there a way that I can do this?? Total confussion!!     Does anyone have any suggestions???

Sweetie P,

There are options with small business loans.  I recommend getting a SCORE counselor through SBA to help give you some direction.  SBA also can help you get loans.  If you have a women`s small business center in your area I highly recommend heading there. 

If you can`t get a loan you will most likely have to do what most people do and that`s get another job and then attempt to launch your business while maintaining a full-time job.  Thousands of people do it everyday. 

But before you make a decision you should definitely talk with someone who can offer you solid professional and financial advice.

Best,

Jennifer
