Default Looking to start a business.

Hi everyone, I am new here Im looking to start my own business. I want to start up a paintball field, so it will be expensive for land, bunkers, equipment, and things like that. Any ideas on start-up money on something like this? Any help would be great. Thanks.

Contact a potential investor i.e. a person who is interested in investing money in your idea.

Give him a presentation and reason to believe that money would not be gone forever.

Do it with confidence and if possible show past result. How you give this presentation will determine the result. If you dont have enough charisma, try honing it by joining a professional course or find a mentor.

I hope this help.

Dont let your age get in the way of your idea!
I think its a great idea - the extreme sports market is buzzing at the moment, and now is the best time to jump in.
You don't have to start off with all the high tec gadgets, work your way up.
Rent some land, a great idea would be a disused, rundown building (although you would have to check out insurance and safety BLAH BLAH) it would be a cheaper option however.

I think giving your Bank a little visit is your best option if you are really stuck for money. It all depends how much you have already, and how much more you are asking for.

Where abouts are you anyway ?

Good Luck -
hope to hear from you soon.

Thanks for the encouragement. I was looking to buy land, but couldnt find much on the internet. Is there somewhere I can look to find where land is available? I looked into building but all the permits and things like that would cost to much. Btw I live in Tampa, Florida.

I am also only 20 too and i have already sold plans to clients of age 50 and above.

Being young is not disadvantage but a thrust. Young Entrepreneurs are preferred over the old ones, but the condition you have a well prepared business venture available.

Also age should never been seen professional life,
