Why you shouldn't ignore the topic of finance.
Financing start-ups becomes an issue for founders relatively early on. There's no question about it: starting a company costs money. How much depends on your business idea and the effort involved. The Digitale Gründung team will help you keep an eye on your finances and plan all the steps in a well-founded manner.
How the right financing can help a startup get off the ground
Let's be honest: founders who constantly have to worry about their finances have no time to focus on their company and their business idea.
But what does financing for start-ups actually look like? There is no standardised answer to this question. But one thing is certain: once you have found a financing solution that suits you perfectly, you can concentrate much better on the essentials. The DG team will present your options to you in detail.
Start-up financing: You can choose between these options
Anyone who takes a closer look at the financing of start-ups quickly realises that the options here are far more extensive than it might seem. From startup financing to private to classic loans, almost anything is possible here.
The most popular options include
- Support from friends/family
- Credits and loans
- Crowdfunding
- Subsidies
- University programmes
What should you look out for when financing your startup in Germany?
As with other loans, you should of course not overstretch yourself when financing your start-up. After all, you should be able to pay your instalments on time and in full.
Questions that you should consider in this context include
- How much credit can I afford?
- How much money do I need?
- What type of startup financing suits me best?
- How long do I want to repay the instalments
- Do I value fee-free special payments?
Combine several financing options?
If you are founding a start-up and want to realise secure financing, you often have the opportunity to play through various financing options. After all, you can, for example, take out a loan and, under certain conditions, take advantage of subsidies.
Of course, the more you combine, the more important it is not to lose track. And the DG team will be happy to help you here too!
This way you can secure several advantages at the same time:
- less stress
- a ‘financing package’ that suits you perfectly
- noticeable time savings
How much debt capital should founders raise?
There is no fixed rule for this. While some founders have saved up some private assets over time and have no problem investing them, others ‘only’ have their business idea but no equity.
The Digitale Gründung team will help you to individually assess your personal situation and show you how you can get started without too much stress!
It's best to draw up a business plan that shows you exactly how much money you need to realise your idea. We can then discuss everything and find out how we can create the right financial basis for you.
The right startup financing offers you a lot of flexibility
Founding a start-up is all about self-realisation, professional success and flexibility. And this is exactly where the right financing comes into play. The better it is adapted to your situation, the easier all further steps will be.
With a sufficiently large financial buffer behind you, you can make your investments in a more targeted manner and outsource the tasks you don't want to deal with yourself. Practical, isn't it?
