Bank Loans (long or short term) - however they can incurs high interest rates. Overdraft -(short term solution) but again includes paying interest. Business angles - people that invest in your business with the sole purpose of making a return, they do not make any other contributions bar financial and are paid in equity. Selling shares on the stock exchange - this method is on available to PLC's as LTD's can only sell to friends/family - quick way of generating capital but owners decrease the amount of business they own.
