To solve problem of low capital in a business is to consult people that are nearest to you and see if they can offer you some sort of help in your business, this could be your parents, partners, uncles or collegues and if you can't secure help that way you can go on to seek partnership with Banks or other financial institutions that give out loans.

Though you'll have to be extra careful with this option especially if your business is not profitable because you can easily get yourself in debt, Is more advisable to seek help from the first group.

Kudos to you, and according to my opinion I think businesses can take steps to address low working capital, such as extending payment terms to vendors, enhancing inventory management to lower holding costs, speeding up the collection of accounts receivable, optimizing cash flow through careful cost monitoring, and looking into short-term financing options such as business lines of credit. Through the implementation of effective cash management strategies and possible external funding sources, firms can fortify their working capital position and guarantee seamless operations and expansion. Thanks
