A Funding Consultant Could Show You An Easier Way to Raise Capital in the United States - By Ken Hollowell

The concern as to who will purchase your stock is always on the mind of every individual entering into a stock selling procedure. This is one of the most common and important questions asked by nearly every business owner seeking funding for their business or concept. The concern who and how private investors are going to be reached is ever present when someone launches a private placement offering. Few individuals ever enter into a private placement offering with confidence concerning the marketing of the offering. Convincing yourself that have made the right decision to have a private placement memorandum prepared and to begin promoting the offering is usually questionable. There are many broker/dealers that have networks and private investors, investment clubs, individual angels and venture capitalists that look at both start ups and existing businesses for all levels of funding. But can you afford their services when they may want 20% to 40% commissions for raising the funds? Some may even want upfront fees to begin promoting your offering and there are no guarantees either. So who do I use?

The best person to promote and sell the offering is YOU! No one knows your business better than YOU. No one can explain and answer questions like YOU. No one can reach a comfort zone with an investor like YOU.

The key element is PASSION in and for your project. Any private investor that experiences the rare passion of your heart's desire to accomplish the goals and objectives of your business will surely weigh the emotional commitment to the success of the venture. No broker/dealer could ever express that type of passion as well as YOU.

It is important that you approach the promotions of your offering as a full time endeavor. It's now the most important job YOU have in front of you every day. It is your role, duty, job, and intentions to find private investors who are willing and able to purchase your private stock and convince them to back you in your company or project.

With Profran Consultants we prepare YOU to confidentially with credibility and believability relate and achieve the expression of that passion to each private investor. It is our opinion that 50% of the work is to convince the investor that YOU believe in your project and are prepared to go all the way to accomplish the success of the venture. This requires YOU to make contact with and develop a dialogue with each private investor to be certain that the investor as a potential investor in your project feels you commitment.
