How to Start a Business with No Money - 3 Expert Tips for Start Up Success!

Was it really possible to learn to start a business without money? The answer is a resounding yes! As a Start Up Business Consultant, I can not say how much times I asked that specific question. The good news is that starting a business without money is not only possible – but very smart.
I mean, why would anyone make up a large mountain of debt for loans to small businesses, if they do not need – or rack high interest credit card debt as a tool for managing cash flow. It’s a better way – and is called bootstrapping.
Let’s take a look at three ways in which you can learn how to start a new business without big bank loans.

What is Forensic Accounting?

Forensic accounting is the practice of utilizing accounting, auditing, and investigative skills to assist in legal matters.  It encompasses 2 main areas – litigation support, investigation, and dispute resolution.  Litigation support represents the factual presentation of economic issues related to existing or pending litigation.
In this capacity, the forensic accounting professional quantifies damages sustained by parties involved in legal disputes and can assist in resolving disputes, even before they reach the courtroom.  If a dispute reaches the courtroom, the forensic accountant may testify as an expert witness.
Investigation is the act of determining whether criminal matters such as employee theft, securities fraud (including falsification of financial statements), identity theft, and insurance fraud have occurred.  As part of the forensic accountant’s work, he or she may recommend actions that can be taken to minimize future risk of loss.  Investigation may also occur in civil matters.  For example, the forensic accountant may search for hidden assets in divorce cases.
Forensic accounting involves looking beyond the numbers and grasping the substance of situations.  It’s more than accounting…more than detective work…it’s a combination that will be in demand for as long as human nature exists.  Who wouldn’t want a career that offers such stability, excitement, and financial rewards.
