What an achievement! You’ve started your first business… or perhaps you’re growing it and need access to cash to grow. Irrespective, many small businesses, startups and young entrepreneurs find it challenging when applying for business financing or funding to achieve their goals. Most of these small businesses in South Africa are “unbankable” as they don’t seem to have a track record or financial history. Don’t be deflated or overwhelmed. Make use of alternative funding solutions like ours. That’s the fundamental reason for ProfitShare Partners’ birth; we exist to fund small businesses, thus ensuring inclusive economic growth.
What is funding, and how does it work?
Funding allows you to give your business the boost it needs to pay for purchase orders or fulfil contracts from large established corporates. This access to funds allows small businesses to procure resources needed to fulfil the order without selling shares in their business to raise the capital. At PSP, we merely take an agreed share of the profit per transaction. We have a team of experts that help you throughout the process, and eventually, we groom our clients to be “bankable.” As a business owner, this is undoubtedly reassuring and gives you the confidence to apply for alternative business funding.
