Yeah anarcho-syndicalist businesses are basically bottlenecked by not being willing to raise capital by selling equity so you rely on people slowly accumulating savings through wage labor then putting that all at risk to start something. Which is fine, but it certainly is easier to start your business by giving some random rich person a 50%+ stake in exchange for a bunch of money. Same logic applies to business expansion. You permanently attach a parasite to yourself in order to supercharge business growth.
I'd like to see funding via comrades, i.e. selling shares or equity for micro grants. None of us are millionaires but there's probably enough of us that can spare $100 to get something going.

Usually this is done by issuing memberships or selling debt to members.
I wasn't necessarily saying that they should do that but I suppose it's an option. I would have hesitations about that route though.
