Fledgling businesses rarely command seed or venture funding right out of the gate. But they still need cash to get started.
While entrepreneurs have more capital sources than ever before, they're also faced with a ton of misinformation.
For example, a PwC report last month raved about crowdfunding and how it's helping female founders get ahead in business. The report lumps Kickstarter-style campaigns together with peer-to-peer lending and equity fundraising online. It regards these as a single source of capital, which it calls crowdfunding.
