New Start businesses are crucial in driving the UK’s economic recovery in 2011. With unemployment increasing and fewer jobs available, people are looking for more ways to generate an income. Sole traders in the UK are dramatically on the increase as people are taking the chance to innovate and start up their own businesses.
Challenges for New Starts
New Starts may often struggle to really get their business off the ground due to a lack of cash flow in its early days. Banks will seldom loan money to companies without a financial history, and overdrafts are becoming more unreliable and costly.
