Golden Nugget for Entrepreneurs In my POV, loans are ideal for early-stage businesses to build progress before pitching to VC, but remember, loans come with risk: • Loans help you establish your business, manage cash flow, and achieve short-term growth, but they involve fixed repayments and financial pressure. • VCs typically want to see progress as a proven model, traction, and long-term growth potential before investing. Don’t pitch with just an idea 90% of idea pitches get rejected. Your idea investment acceptance rate is just only 10% without progress! With a strong track record built through loans, you can easily attract VC with a compelling case for scalable, long-term growth. Remember: • Loans: Boost short-term growth and progress, but carry risk and repayment pressure. • VC: Want to see results before investing but provide guidance and risk-sharing for scaling. Disclaimer: Just my POV. Choose the path that suits your business growth strategy.

The sweet spot i think is to use loans to build momentum and prove your concept. Then, when you pitch VCs, you have real progress to show off. It’s all about proving the model before asking for big investment.
