There are only three ways to improve your financial condition.
The first is to take money out of your personal savings and deposit it into your business account. If you are asking this question, you’ve probably already done that several times.
The second way is to take money from a new business partner including friends, family, an angel investor, a venture capitalist, etc. Some of the world’ biggest companies have flourished from such a relationship, but many, many more have cursed the day that they entered into such a relationship and thereby gave away control/direction of their company.
