For Services For Startups, Seed Stage & Pre-Revenue Companies:
If you have not yet created a minimum
viable product, and have no customers, you are in the most difficult period for raising capital. It can feel very discouraging
when you have a passion and a belief that your product or service can make a difference in the world and no one else seems
to 'get it'. We can help.
For Companies wanting to Raise Capital "From the Crowd":
With the regulatory changes mandated by the
JOBS Act of 2012 and the rules and guidelines issued by the SEC, there are so many ways for companies to raise capital from
investors not previously known to them. Entrepreneurs have the ability to reach out to any and all interested parties
via just about any means to attract them to their investment opportunity and directly solicit their investment depending on
the status of that investor. We offer strategy and investor relations programs for companies seeking to raise capital
through: Intrastate Solicitation, Crowd Funding, Reg D 506c and Reg A+. Let us help determine if Crowd
Financing is right for you and which program best fits your stage and capital need.
For Companies with 2 years of Revenues and are Cash Flow positive, raising $2 Million or More:
Congratulations! You have
reached a milestone that many companies never get to. You have probably been working hard and steady, investing every
dollar back into your business. You may have realized that you could grow faster and bigger if you had extra money to
invest in your infrastructure, sales team, or bring a new product to market. The idea of giving up equity after all
your hard work may seem scary, and worse, you really don't have time to mess with it. We have the solution for you.
Because of our vast network of many different types of capital, we can put together a strategy that may use crowd funding,
or direct to specific types of investors, or may utilize other alternative financing programs you are not even aware of that
combined can meet your specific needs.
For Companies Raising Capital to pay for National Advertising and Media to support a Branding Campaign or National Rollout:
If you have determined that limiting your
marketing strategy to social media and internet advertising isn't reaching your target like you want and you need to back
up your roll out with an advertising campaign to drive customers into a store or to pick up the phone and call, you need to
learn about our Media Funding Program. With our strategic partner we offer a discounted advertising program available
on a variety of traditional media from print ads to billboards to television and non-traditional like product placement and
digital signage in mass transit and malls. And, even better, part of the cost of the program is paid for on the back end through
revenue and/or equity.
For Companies in High Growth Mode Seeking Short Term Capital:
You may have found yourself
in a situation where you finally landed that big client and now you are wondering how you are going to finance the order,
buy the inventory, or pay your employees while you wait for the customer to pay. Although we can help with SBA financing,
we have many more alternative lenders that we work with that offer a variety of programs to finance a company's growth.
Let us help you navigate the many types of debt available and help you apply to get that funding.

here are intended to be a guide to the options that are available to the entrepreneurs that recognize they need an experienced
