Any help for a restaurant start-up?
My wife and I plan on opening a resteraunt. My wife has 10+ years as manager, baker, ordering stock, basically everything.
I my self have had similar experience, when I was younger of course, but I am a hard worker who has NEVER been turned down for a raise, I also catch on really quick to just about everything. So in a year ot two it will be possible for us to have a financial backer, so start-up money is pretty much taken care of. so to my questions…….
I would like to know things like…….
Does it really count to have some busines degree or training when looking to lease a building , or open a busines account?? (both of us have all our pre-requisites out of the way right now so it wouldn’t be hard for us to continue on, in fact I plan to)
Opening a "franchise" as opposed to starting from scratch?
Research tips on best area to open in, near malls etc.
Buying equipment…. proofers, baking racks, ovens etc.?
Tax breaks and incentives?
What ever else you think can help.

I’m a small business owner with bad credit in need of financing. Is it possible?
I am currently leasing a suite in an office building. I have opened a nail salon and am having a hard time keeping up with the rent. I want to get some sort of financial help to purchase equipment that would allow me to rent booths to other operators, which would help me generate revenue. I need money to purchase manicuring tables and chairs. If I could just get a little help, I could really get this thing up and running, I have been told that I am very good, and being self-employed is wonderful. I am a licensed manicurist and I have big dreams of having my own franchise of nail salons. I just don’t know how I can do that when I don’t have the money already. I’m just trying to better myself and provide stable work environments for others. You can check out some of my work at http://www.myspace.com/nailit2em

Small Business Loans and/or Grants for Minorities?
I am a Filipino (hopefully looking for answers from any other filipino experianced in this matter) looking to either obtain a small business loan, state, government, or privatized funded grant, or other acquirable capital to buy into a small business that is essentially a franchise.
Not like a restaurant but a service company requiring ,000 capital for the equipment purchase. I would also need an additional -50,000 for overhead (building lease, advertising, uniforms, etc.).
I live in Texas if that is relevent. I do not have any of my own capital and or collateral. I rent my home and only have a vehicle paid off. I have dark brown curly hair, enjoy strolls on the beach and like to karoake……whoa, ok, now I’m going off on a tangent.
Anyways, any information would be greatly appreciated. And as I do on other questions, smart alecky remarks will be welcome as well….
