Myth V. Reality. Myth: Raising capital is Free Easy Guaranteed Reality: You need to pay for legal, accounting, marketing and comply with all security laws to solicit capital. Most companies do not and fail to raise capital. It could take 4 to 6 months depending on the amount of capital you are raising. You could still fail to raise capital. Myth: VC capital is available to companies. Reality: VC firms fund 5 out of 10,000 companies. It's not going to happen. Book a call [email protected]. Discover your options.

Can I raise capital working with you? How do I know. Investors may not like you or your deal. They may not like your terms. They may not trust you to return their money. There are many reasons why you will fail to raise capital. It has nothing to do with who you work with. Just because investors invested in something doesn't mean they will invest in everything. If you can't convince investors to invest in your deal, there is something wrong with your deal.

Stop telling your story and start talking to investors. Tell them what they want to hear not what you want to say. They have heard it all before. Tell them how you will return their money. Build their trust and they will write a check. Book a call [email protected]. Discover your options. We advise companies on where to find investors and raise $10 million or more.

You use a REG D 506 C because the SEC allows you advertise, market and promote your offering using general solicitation to find accredited investors. Why? Because REG D 560 B requires you to have an established pre-existing business relationship with investors before you offer or sell them a security. Meaning you need to know the investors very well before asking and know he is qualified to invest in your offering and sophisticated enough to understand the risk. You don't know any investors and you don't have a pre-existing business relationship with them. So, you are using REG D 506 C to find them. If you don't have the money to pay the cost of advertising you're offering to find accredited investors, what are you doing raising capital with a REG D 506 C? How do you think you will find accredited investors? Again, what are you doing? Contact us today. Don't waste any more time. We advise companies on how to find investors and raise $10 million or more in capital.

Raising capital is your responsibility. If you can't talk to investors and convince them to invest your company, you will never raise capital. No one else can do it for you. Someone can make an introduction for you but it's up to you to close the deal and get the check. Investors do not want to talk to intermediaries selling your deal. You are the CEO if you can't do it forget about raising capital. You can buy all the investors lists peddled by others, hire coaches, take courses and master classes but getting the check is up to you. You might be able to get someone to invest $500.00 on a crowdfunding portal but to get serious money requires your personal effort and communication. So, if you are raising capital get serious about talking to investors directly. Stop blaming a third-party for not performing. They can make the introduction it's up to you to close the deal.
