Hey guys I need some advice.
I'm about to invest 3000 dollars into my business, still relatively new (though it has made money, little though), and I'm somewhat getting cold feet. I'm not the only one, it's me putting in half with a colleague to buy equipment to do business with.
I'm hesitant due to only the possibility of failure. I ask for advice perhaps by those who have gone through similar situations. Any questions welcome.
Depends on the business. More info if you want competent adv

>depends on the business
mostly this. but also what this investment means. is it just money down the drain but your life is otherwise fine? or is it htat you are relying on this money to become more money cuz if it doesnt you are fucked sometime this year or next?

Are you a photographer/videographer?
If so, they're rough fields. I quit doing it for a living a while back because I just couldn't take how shitty it was. 90% of it is marketing, though, and if you have a niche that's not overflowing and can actually market yourself and produce good work, then there's still a place for it.
What I'll say is that 3k isn't that much money in the scheme of things. Yeah, losing it would be a punch in the gut, but it's not an amount you can't make back in a month or two at a regular job.
Fuck what everyone else is saying.
Do you love doing what your business will end up being about?
Do you have a -real- and feasible vision, allied with a passion to give you determination to carry through in the good times and bad?

Every great entrepreneur at some point mortgaged the family home and bet it all on the business. If you don't have faith in your dreams, who will?

Thanks. Yes it's related to this.
However I will say that we have expansion plans in place so that we don't rely solely on this.
Thanks for the advice everyone. I feel ready today so I'm going to go through with it. In any case it's something I feel ready for.
