Starting a business in a recession

Many people faced with unemployment consider starting their own business. Before the recession, banks were more likely to consider funding franchise opportunities, provided that loan applicants presented a good business plan. During a recession, alas, funding is not so easy, particularly if starting a business with no track record or experience.
