1st Raising Capital Workshop

Randy Schwartz, BuilDynamic,

"Best thing about the workshop was the differentiation between objective & subjective investors and the relative insights.  Enjoyed getting the elevator pitch pointers. Good insight and personable delivery of information."

Paul Lapides, Kennesaw State University,
Professor, Entrepreneur Expert

"Excellent Value - Wish I could have taken this course 30 years ago when I was getting started with my first business."

Clint Crowe, MD Digest

Found the real life examples particularly helpful and the opportunity to work on the elevator pitch helpful.

Yolanda Owens, IWI Fresh

"This workshop helped me to be prepared on moving into the investsors' world.  I like the added piece on the legal info."

Kip Meeboer

"Great Job!  Best thing about the workshop was the continuity and breadth of topics."

Gary Johnson, softKVM, LLC

Best thing about the workshop was meeting the other entrepreneurs & forcing me to focus on my fund raising for that time away from the office.  Wish there was more time for Q&A and even to make it a full day workshop."

Eric Morten, Future Creative Designs

"Best thing about the workshop was the workbook to be a great reference tool.  Would like to see the workshop longer to give us more time to improve our elevator pitches and dig into topics like valuation."

Ron Reardon, Patents & More

"Excellent event.  I have clients who are at the "concept stage" and are asking for $1-$2 Million in start up funds.  They really need this workshop to level set their expectations.  I'd also like to see a video tape or CD of the conference made available for an additional fee."

Phillipe Le Baron, LB4G Consulting

"Excellent workshop that helped me understand better what investors are looking for and how to pitch to them.  Coming from abroad, this helped me position my pitch a lot faster to the US Investor."

Michael Norwood, Doolebration

"Fantastic Seminar.  Biggest thing I learned was to understand the mind of the investor.  Wish it was longer to dig deeper into each segment.  There was so much information covered in just 4 hours."

Anthony Burks, Financial Advisor

The workshop reinforced my understanding of the capital raising process and increased my comfort level in referring clients to fiture workshops.  Best thing about the workshop was the insight provided and the opportunity to meet other entrepreneurs who are at various stages along the business life cycle...also the venue created to give the entrepreneurs an "in" with angel investors/venture capital firms.

Kamal Bhatia, Action Bartending Schools

Best thing about the workshop was understanding how to raise capital, how to do presentations & keep in mind how to use brokers effectively and legally.

Susan Smith, Poochie PAX

"The workshop gave me a broad understanding of the steps involved to begin the process of securing additional funding for my company.  Overall good content and delivery."

Vic Macchio, Dinova

Best thing about the workshop was better understanding the securities law.  I've raised a lot of capital but it is always good to stay on top of the legal side of doing that.

Alicia Wehner, Banker

"This is fantastic information for me to pass along to my clients.  Referring this workshop and the meetings will be easy.  I love the fact that everyone is here to improve ad do business!.  Very beneficial for anyone to attend....capital seekers or not."

Pennye Westbrook, Lady's Luck Club

"The workshop was more than I expected...never a dull moment - No Naptime :-).  As always and each time I speak with Karen, Ken & the LAUNCHfn team, I gain incredible insight, information & knowledge.  This workshop covered many topics I've been working on as a coaching client of LAUNCHfn, it reinforced the knowledge I have been gaining & also reminded me I still have a lot to learn & experience to gain.  Thank You."
