Q. Why does the government give away these low-cost loans and grants?
A. The government invests money in business enterprises because they're looking for long-term benefits. This money can create new jobs, lead to future taxes, boost local economies and promote America around the world.

Q. How many programs are out there?
A. At this time, there are more than 1,000 programs available for funding new or existing business.

Q. What type of funding is available?
A. Benefits from the government come in the form of:

  • Professional consulting and advice
  • Tax credits and refunds
  • Government-backed loans
  • Research and development grants
  • Government insurance on your receivables or debt
  • Trade show grants
  • Other types of government grants
  • Assistance with hiring and training employees

Q: How are grants different from loan guarantees?
A. Grants are different in that they never have to be paid back. These grants are awarded for many purposes, to help small businesses. Loans guaranteed by the government encourage lenders to make loans they might otherwise decline.

Q. Why do so few people apply for these programs?
A. Many people don’t even realize these program exist or know where to look or how to apply. Government agencies don’t have the time or staff to educate the public about the right programs to choose… or the right way to apply for them. You’re left to do it yourself, with time-consuming, often costly results. Unnecessary delays could even mean you miss a deadline for the grant or program that’s right for your situation.

Q. Why contact Federal Funding For Small Business?
A. You could spend hundreds of hours tracking down this information yourself. But how much is your time worth? To you, your family, and your business? With the help of FFSB, you can focus on exactly the right government programs for your business and be filling out the right application quickly.

Q. Should I apply to one program at a time? Or several?
A. Don't limit your search. Programs exist at many levels of government, departments and agencies. We recommend applying for several different sources at the same time. And don’t delay. Programs expire every day. Many have deadlines for applying.
