After spending about three hours on the phone with the Small Business Administration I've learned that I will NOT be receiving the PRIME2011 grant. My business is too new, which was not specified in the pre-application package only in the one that must be sent by email to the applicant. Next year I can and will qualify for grants through the government. My options are limited to small business loans and higher volume of business. I'm skeptical to do the loan for a majority of reasons, but mostly I have enough student loans I am not about to get one just for the business. I did some research on gaining money for a small business and mostly I am following all necessary options such as keeping it a part time business and continuing to work as much as I can in the mean time to save up for its growth.
I think I might just need to get another job in the mean time that will help job start this process. Any ideas on whose currently hiring??
