HOW TO MAKE $2 MILLION WITH JUST A LAPTOP AND PHONE
You Can Sell Big When You're Small
Now they have valuations rivaling the GDP of small (or not-so-small) nations but the biggest giants in enterprise software -- whether Microsoft, Oracle or Salesforce -- all began as small startups scrambling to make their first sale.
Most startup founders gaze up toward these giants and build their companies with the hope they, too, will someday be referenced in articles such as mine. These founders have an idea for a needed tech solution, so they grab an engineering partner and start developing. After a couple iterations, they've got what they think is a promising product.
But, now comes the hard part: convincing someone to fork over cash for what they've built and get to the next stage of the game -- hiring more engineers, or maybe just moving out of the cramped space the team calls an office (my early team at Clari spent our first six months working out of the CTO's garage). Just as importantly, VCs rarely put forward significant capital for growth without proof someone wants to pay for what you've got.

Why a business needs money

First, let’s take a look at why a business needs money in the first place. There’s no uniform “startup” fee for building a business, so different businesses will have different needs. It’s important to first estimate how much you need before you start finding alternative methods to fund your company.
Consider the following uses:
  • Licenses and permits. Depending on your region, you may need special paperwork and registry to operate.
  • Supplies. Are you buying raw materials? Do you need computers and/or other devices?
  • Equipment. Do you need specialized machinery or software?
  • Office space. This is a huge expense, and you can't neglect things like Internet, utilities costs, janitorial services and whether to outsource back office tasks, like payroll and invoicing.
  • Associations, subscriptions, memberships. What publications and affiliations will you subsribe to every month?
  • Operating expenses. Dig into the nooks and crannies here, and don’t forget about marketing.
  • Legal fees. Are you consulting a lawyer throughout your business-development process?
  • Employees, freelancers and contractors. If you can’t do it alone, you’ll need people on your payroll.
With that said, you have two main paths of starting a business with less money: lowering your costs or increasing your available capital from outside sources. You have three option
