My credit is not that great and I need some help financially, getting my small business off the ground. $1500 max, not much just enough for start up costs, and day to day living while I am building clients. I am starting my own Home Cleaning and Organizing business, something that seems very simple but I am extremely good at what I do. Iam just stuck in a hole financially and I can't seem to get out.

To get started, I suggest contacting the Small Business Administration Financing Page (SBA) – links below. Entrepreneur also offers a great site dedicated to money & finance – see below.
Research, research, research – this cannot be stressed enough. Read as much as you can. Here are some book titles that are relevant:
* Free Money for Small Businesses and Entrepreneurs by Laurie Blum

* Financing Your Business Dreams With Other People's Money: How and Where to Find Money for Start-Up and Growing Businesses by Harold R. Lacy
* No Cash No Fear: Entrepreneurial Secrets to Starting Any Business with No Money by Terry Allen
* Starting on a Shoestring: Building a Business Without a Bankroll by Arnold S. Goldstein
There are plenty of free informational resources out there. Check the source box for links to articles.
Associations may be a good avenue to explore. These organizations will address many of the thoughts, questions and concerns you'll inevitably have as well as many you haven't anticipated yet. See the source box for some relevant links.
