business plan or build a prototype in order to sell the idea.

Debt Financing:
The financing that an entrepreneur borrows and must repay with interest.
Examples:
Equity Financing Vs Debt Financing
• Both equity and debt financing come with their favorable and unfavorable
terms that may suit or not suit the company.
Equity Financing Debt Financing
Process Speed Takes considerable time as the company is
required to comply with all the regulations
and it’s not easy to negotiate with the
investors.
It’s faster when compared to
financing through equity.
Ownership
Dilution
Requires the founders to dilute their
ownership rights and share it with the
investors.
Doesn’t involve dilution of
ownership.
Creditworthiness Team’s past performance and ability matters
more than the creditworthiness of the
business.
It depends fully on the
creditworthiness of the
company or the individual who
takes the loan.
Effect on Cash
flow
It doesn’t require the startup to pay periodic
interests on investment so it doesn’t affect
cash flow.
Debt financing requires the
business to pay periodic
interests on investment and
affects cash flow.
Sources of Debt Financing
 Commercial banks
 Debt Financing Over the Short-Term
 Debt Financing Over the Long-Term
Nonbank Sources of Debt Capital
Although they usually are the first stop for entrepreneurs in search of debt
capital, banks are not the only lending game in town. We now turn our
attention to other sources of debt capital that entrepreneurs can tap to
feed their cash-hungry companies.
 Trade credit

(technology companies in hot fields such as software, medical devices and

stages of development (called early- stage investing) or in the rapid phase
( called expansion – stage investing).
Stages of investment:

own money, directly to the companies have no family connection, plays a
key role in the financing of emergent businesses.

(informally) in an entrepreneurial business without formal intermediation.
Angel Financing
• Private investors (angels) are wealthy individuals, often entrepreneurs
themselves, who choose to invest their own money in business start-ups in
exchange for equity stakes in the companies.
• Angels invest in businesses for more than purely economic reasons—for
example, because they have a personal interest or experience in a particular
industry—and they are willing to put money into companies in the earliest
stages.
• Angel financing is vital to the nation’s small business sector because it fills this
capital gap in which small companies need investments
• Angels are a primary source of start-up capital for companies in the start-up
stage through the growth stage, and their role in financing small businesses is
significant.

individuals who invest their own
money into startup ventures.

eager to place a big bet on a
startup with an interesting idea.

The Challenges of New-Venture Start-up
There are 150 million startups in the world today with 50 million new startups
launching every year. On average, there 137,000 startups emerging every day.
These are huge numbers by any standards.
But the question remains, how many startups tend to survive the violent
waves of change that have completely transformed the very nature of today’s
startups?
Yes, there is a huge paradigm shift. And that shift has challenged the overall
functionality of startups.
Challenges are everywhere. And businesses – in general and startups in
particular – are no exception to myriad of challenges that we face today.
Some of the challenges are listed below
1. Unrealistic Expectations
2. Hiring suitable candidates
3. Financial Managements
4. Cyber security
5. Winning Trust of customer
6. Ineffective marketing
7. Lack of skills and gaps
8. Leadership
9. Time management and productivity
10. Impact on the health
Examples of some common startups in Pakistan
• Tajir
• Grocer App
• Finja
• Salesflo
• Byka
Pitfalls in Selecting New Ventures
• Lack of Objective Evaluation:
 You think it’s a good idea but you only evaluate the idea on your
own terms. Need to look at it objectively.
• No Real Insight into the Market:
 Didn't do market research
 Don’t understand market
• Inadequate Understanding of technical Requirement
 You don't need to be a tech person in every business, but there are
technical requirements that need to be understood and if your
team doesn't know them, that's a problem.
Pitfalls in Selecting New Ventures
• Poor Financial Understanding:
 You need to understand how much money you need before/during getting
started and you need to know how to get financing.
• Lack of Venture Uniqueness:
 You need to come up with something that has a competitive advantage -
not just the same as something else.
• Ignorance of Legal Issues:
 You need to know about patent infringement or copyright infringement,
because if you don't, that can get you in trouble.
Critical Factors for New-Venture Development
Uniqueness _A new ventures range of uniqueness can be considerable,
depending on the amount of innovation required during prestart-up.
Investment _The capital investment required to start a new venture can vary
considerable.
Growth of sales _The growth of sales through the start-up phase is another
critical factor.
Product Availability _Product availability refers to the availability of a salable
good or service, at the time the venture opens its doors.
Customer Availability _Venture risk is affected by customer for start-up.
Founder & Leader_ Founders they should have right set of qualification who
starts the business he is call founder/owner of the business.
A person who leads a group of people is called leader.
Management Team_ Managers are the employees of the company they are
not be the owners. Every organization has need set of people with skill and
knowledge.
Why New Ventures Fail?
Entrepreneurs starting new businesses is what drives the economy,
innovation and job creation. But many businesses fail in starting first three
years. There are some reasons of businesses fail.
Failing to hire and retain the right people:
One of the biggest challenges that small business owners face is hiring,
managing and retaining staff. Establishing a diverse team with
complementary skill sets, the right attitude and values aligned with your
business from the start will help you in the long run.
Not Enough Marketing:
You can have the best product or service in the world, but if nobody
knows about it, you won’t succeed. One of the most effective forms of
marketing is word-of-mouth marketing. It’s a form of advertising that
comes directly from satisfied customers. Most consumers will believe a
recommendation from a good friend or family member much faster than
any ad or marketing strategy.
Incorrect Price:
Many companies base their prices on their costs, not their customers’
perceptions of value. Companies hold prices at the same level for too
long, ignoring changes in costs, competitive environment and in
customers’ preferences.
The Evaluation Process
• Profile Analysis
Involves identifying and investigating the financial, marketing, organizational,
and human resource variables that influence the business potential before
the new idea is put into practice.
• The Feasibility Criteria Approach
Involves the use of a criteria selection list from which entrepreneurs can gain
insights into the viability of their venture.
• Comprehensive Feasibility Approach
Incorporates external factors in addition to those included in the criteria
questions.
