This often results in un-aligned partnerships with profit splits as well as control over your business - with someone who doesn't know or care about your industry or business as much as you do. Whilst this may solve an apparent immediate cash pressing problem, long term, this mis-alignment ultimately causes problems. Whilst cash is important, it is better to value more the entrepreneurial expertise that can be brought in by potential investors or partners which,&nbsp; if put into action, will grow the business geometrically and sustainably.&nbsp; </div>

<div><span style="color:inherit;"><div> It isn't &quot;the lack of resources in most businesses that is to blame but rather, lack of resourcefulness&quot; that's the key and ongoing problem.
