Starting Up

GOT A PLAN???

Picture
Every successful journey begins with a plan. Starting a business is an exciting process that requires a strong foundation based on careful planning and research. Check out the U.S. Small Business Administration's website for videos and instructions on how to write a business plan. The assistance of Lehigh University's Small Business Development Center (SBDC) and Bucks County SCORE are available to you at no charge and a great place to start developing that plan.

You may need some capital to get started and you'll need that business plan to shop rates.  Need a small amount of cash and not a lot of credit? Check out The Rising Tide loan fund. Already dealing with your bank but need a bit more? Check in with the Bucks County Economic Development Corporation. Interested in an industrial property that needs to be redeveloped? You'll want the Bucks County Redevelopment Authority.  The Small Business Administration (SBA) provides a number of financial assistance programs for small businesses that have been specifically designed to meet key financing needs, including debt financing, surety bonds, and equity financing.

​Also, be sure to check out resources available through the Bucks County Workforce Development Board.
