Funding request

A funding request to a lender or investor should include the following:

  • Introduction
  • Business plan including financial projections
  • Capital requirements (total needed)
    • One-time costs (or capital expenditure budget if the one-time costs will be spread out over time)
    • Recurring costs (also called operating expenses)
  • Capital available (what you already have)
  • Financing plan (what you plan to seek from different sources)
  • The funding request (what you’re seeking from this lender or investor, and how it fits into the plan)
  • Use of funds (how you will use the capital you raise)
