Personal savings.
Using her own savings is usually the most accessible source and clearly shows “skin in the game” — lenders and investors view owner investment as a strong signal of commitment. It also avoids taking on interest and loan covenants while she’s proving the business model.
Note: personal savings isn’t technically debt financing. If she still wants debt, a small business line of credit is often the next-most accessible option, but it won’t demonstrate owner commitment the way personal investment does.
