<strong>When</strong> <strong>Should</strong> <strong>You</strong> Take a <strong>Loan</strong> For <strong>You</strong>r<br />

<strong>Business</strong><br />

Money is the only element which has the capacity of attracting more money.<br />

Hard work or an excellent brain alone cannot make money if they are not<br />

supported by money itself. The amount of money which is used to attract more<br />

money is known as Capital amount in business terms.<br />

The capital is the lifeline of a business entity irrespective of its size. The fund is<br />

needed <strong>for</strong> sustaining as well as <strong>for</strong> the growth of a business. Most of the<br />

business entities face a problem when they have to bear the expenses of running<br />

their business as well as they want to expand it. If one invests the working<br />

capital in the expansion of business, the business will not run smoothly and if<br />

they don’t invest, they cannot make the business expanded. So the midway is<br />

gaining some additional fund so that without affecting the working capital one<br />

can still invest in the expansion of the business.<br />

<strong>When</strong> you go <strong>for</strong> a business loan your business gets into a debt. Whether to<br />

<strong>take</strong> your business into a debt or not depends primarily on the purpose of your<br />

loan. All the loan purposes are definitely not good and they can turn to a bad<br />

credit. But at the same time, loan <strong>take</strong>n <strong>for</strong> a genuine purpose can make your<br />

business reach the next level.


Here is when one should <strong>take</strong> a loan <strong>for</strong> his business<br />

To Expand Physical Location- Locations matters a lot in terms of gaining a<br />

good revenue. If you feel that your office space has become crowded by the<br />

employees and their computers then it is time <strong>for</strong> setting up a new branch office<br />

or <strong>take</strong>s a larger office. If your business is a manufacturing business, you may<br />

feel the need of starting one more outlet <strong>for</strong> selling your item. Taking a loan <strong>for</strong><br />

expansion of physical location should be done only after calculating the<br />

potential revenue which can be gained by this action. One must be assured that<br />

one can earn some profit while paying the EMIs of the loan which has been<br />

<strong>take</strong>n.<br />

Equipment- One can definitely go <strong>for</strong> a business loan in order to purchase<br />

equipments. Equipments not only minimize the human labor but increase the<br />

productivity too. Without some equipment even your business cannot be run.<br />

Sometimes you need to get some updated equipment while some other<br />

times you may need to repair the old one. Equipments nowadays are costly and<br />

an unplanned equipment purchase can harm the working capital. Taking a loan<br />

<strong>for</strong> purchasing equipments is considered as a good reason <strong>for</strong> availing a loan.<br />

Hiring Fresh Talent- However big your business may be in terms of location,<br />

you cannot actually make it earn a good profit unless you have a team of<br />

talented employees. Along with updated business methods, one must hire<br />

employees who are expert in that area. Some businesses need to invest in fresh<br />

talent to keep their business competitive and innovative. A loan taking can be<br />

called worth if there is a clear connection between the hiring decision and an<br />

increase in revenue.


To Increase Working Capital-Working capital is the liquid fund which is<br />

needed by a business entity <strong>for</strong> managing day-to-day operations. <strong>When</strong> a<br />

business is still in its grassroots level, it may fall short of working capital until<br />

their earning assets are sufficient to cover all the expenses. A lack of working<br />

capital can make a business stop running or slowing down the process. One can<br />

<strong>take</strong> a help from a lender in the <strong>for</strong>m of a short term business loan. Along with<br />

the growth of the business they can earn their own assets can repay the loan.<br />

Marketing- One can <strong>take</strong> a business loan <strong>for</strong> marketing too. If you have a good<br />

product or service and still not able to gain a good revenue then it may be<br />

because of lack of marketing or the wrong marketing strategy. Without proper<br />

marketing, even a very good quality product cannot be famous. One must invest<br />

a huge amount of money <strong>for</strong> marketing their product or service. An investment<br />

in marketing your product is a must <strong>for</strong> giving the exposure to your product.
