I think you might find more luck with a question like, "How do I sell a dream?" or "Want to know how I can make you rich?"
I am going to assume you are looking for funding, because you are trying to capitalize an idea, and that you'd rather convert someone else's money into energy and acceleration than to spend your own money to maintain 100% ownership. (If my assumption is wrong, I'd love to hear why you are looking for funding?)
There is only really one way to create wealth: take a certain amount of capital (money, blood, time, expertise) utilize a particular market advantage to increase the value of that capital, and then withdraw the added value.
So, I assume you are going to invest your time and skill and blood and sweat and tears into your venture. And, I assume you want one or more other people to invest their time and skill into your venture (those are called employee's). But, you might also want some other people to invest their money into your venture (these are called investors). Just like you, and (hopefully) like your employees, they want to get more out from whatever they put in.
You need to convince the investor that you have the ability to utilize a particular market advantage to increase the value of their capital. Just remember, with early-stage investors, they are generally looking for your venture to produce a 5x or 10x return. (I put 100k in, I get 1mm out.) Because they know most of their investments will fail. So, get a 14% return across all their investments over 10 years, they need a few of them to make it big.
So, now that you know all of that, let's answer your original question: "how do i get funding?" To get funding, you need to know why your venture can give a 5x-10x return on investment, know why you solve a problem in a market, and know what your unique market advantage is. Then, sell the dream.
I've personally raised capital, as well as helped several other companies and projects raise funds. There are many factors that play into selecting the right method for your venture. I would need more details to offer you a really good answer. Feel free to set up a call and we can talk through it.

let Me Know if I Can help
Most provide free resources to start-ups, including office facilities and consulting, but many provide seed funding as well. Solicit venture capital investors. These are professional investors, such as Accel Partners, who invest institutional money in qualified start-ups, usually with a proven business model, ready to scale. Most metropolitan areas have groups of local high net-worth individuals interested in supporting start-ups, and willing to syndicate amounts up to a million dollars for qualified start-ups. Here people make online pledges to your start-up during a campaign, to pre-buy the product for later delivery, give donations or qualify for a reward, such as a T-shirt. Request a small-business grant. As a rule, professional investors will expect that you have already have commitments from this source to show your credibility. This is the primary source of non-personal funds for very early-stage start-ups.

In what moment I inject capital to the startup?
The other answers are good, and here is one practical approach to handling this. First, the accounting capitalization (10m x $0.001 = $10k) is really irrelevant. In fact, we went for 10m x $0.0001 = $1k. Whatever you pick, your company after formation will show $X of assets (the cash in the back) and $X of shareholder equity. So far so good. You then need to start spending money through the company. Rather than issue more shares, you can lend the money to the company; write out a loan agreement (probably something like a balloon payment 10 years out with 0% interest) and deposit the check. If you're doing everything at the same time, and want to have $1k of shareholder equity with a total of $25k to spend, then deposit the $25k check and call it $1k to purchase the founder's shares and $24k loan. In this case, your company now has $25,000 assets/cash, $24k liability (to you) and $1k shareholders equity: assets = liabilities + shareholder equity. Hope that helps clarify things a bit...RF

I'm in debt. How do I get out?
I do understand the problem that you are facing. There are several ways to help you out for instance: 1. Pay more than the minimum payment. If you carry the average credit card balance of $15,609, pay a typical 15% APR, and make the minimum monthly payment of $625, it will take you 13.5 years to pay it off. Whether you’re carrying credit card debt, personal loans, or student loans, one of the best ways to pay them down sooner is to make more than the minimum monthly payment. 2. Try the debt snowball method. If you are in the mood to pay more than the minimum monthly payments on your credit cards and other debts, consider using the debt snowball method to speed up the process even more and build momentum. As a first step, you will want to list all the debts you owe from smallest to largest. Once the smallest balance is paid off, start putting that extra money toward the next smallest debt until you pay that one off, and so on. Over time, your small balances should disappear one by one, freeing up more dollars to throw at your larger debts and loans. 3. Pick up a side hustle. With sites like TaskRabbit and Upwork.com, nearly anyone can find some way to earn extra money on the side. 4. Create (and live with) a bare-bones budget. One tool you can create, and use is a bare-bones budget. A bare-bones budget will look different for everyone, but it should be devoid of any «extras» like going out to eat, cable television, or unnecessary spending. While you are living on a strict budget, you should be able to pay considerably more toward your debts. 5. Sell everything you do not need. If you are looking for a way to drum up some cash quickly, it might pay to take stock of your belongings first. Why not sell your extra stuff and use the funds to pay down your debts? Otherwise, you can consider selling your items through a consignment shop, one of the many online resellers out there, or a Facebook yard sale group.
