The 5 Challenging Questions Entrepreneurs Need To Be Prepared To Answer

When you start looking for funding for your business, you have to be prepared to answer a lot of questions – some of which can feel awkward or uncomfortable if this is the first time you’ve sought investment for a business. Here at EHE Capital, we know how that can feel, but we also know why it’s so important to ask these challenging questions early in an entrepreneur’s journey to funding.
