According to Fundera, studies show that there are about more than 28 million small companies around the United States. What many people don’t know about small companies is that they open up with little or no funding and then forced to close down shortly after opening. Some small businesses only open for even just 2 years before being shut down.

Not only is getting your small business up and running a great challenge, but funding can also be known to be a small business owners biggest challenge. Studies show that most small companies do not receive the proper funding they need to open their small business. Depending on the type of small company you desire to open, you could even face great challenges. For example, opening a construction company may require expensive tools and resources.
