Who Needs Venture Capital?

Venture capital is for those situations where a business is not likely, in its present condition, to get funding from traditional sources, but could -- with sufficient financing -- yield great near-future returns for funding sources.

Venture capital is truly risk capital. Because venture capital funding sources are looking for unusually high profitability, this form of equity funding is difficult for most businesses to obtain. They simply cannot meet the potential financial requirements of most venture capitalists. Even if they did, most entrepreneurs usually lack the ability by themselves to "get the doors open". Less than 1% of all applicants to traditional venture capital sources ever get any institutional money!

That is why many businesses with funding needs that cannot easily be met through traditional sources turn to us for help. We are an intermediary in the funding process and our affiliated workers, consultants, and staff have track records for helping small businesses with good profit potential find venture capital funding sources. Our contacts are far reaching, and so is our expertise.

Luckily, institutional venture capitalists aren't the only source of equity funding. Roughly 90% of venture funding gets done through other resources. But locating these resources on your own is time consuming, and getting them to agree to look at your executive summary or business plan can be nearly impossible without an introduction. (Unsolicited business plans and executive summaries are usually tossed out or returned without being read.) If you do get a funding source to look at your executive summary or plan, all your efforts will be in vain if you don't present your "story" in a way that makes the funding source want to open their wallet.

If you get past all of these roadblocks, then you still must negotiate a deal that makes them want to work with you without giving away your family jewels. Of course while you are doing all this, you are still keeping your business going and putting out any "fires" that may be occurring.

We use our expertise and contacts to help businesses with good profit potential to clear the obstacles and present their stories to equity funding sources. The help we offer depends on your company's condition, needs, and profit potential. On a very basic level, we give companies our opinion on what must be done or changed to acquire the equity funding you are seeking. In many cases we also help businesses find the funding that they need to take their business where they want it to go. We could potentially help your company in similar ways.

There is no fee for submitting the initial application. It should be noted that we do not accept all clients. For those clients we do accept, our fees are usually generated on a success basis when funding is achieved. In addition, we charge a reasonable administration fee to accepted clients to cover our costs of gathering, reviewing and processing the information that is necessary to bring a project to the attention of likely funding sources.

If you feel that your company is in a situation that we might be able to help with, please contact us. We strongly recommend that you inquire with your accountants, attorneys and bankers before you contact us. Local financing might your best solution, if available. Your professional advisers should also be made available to us to help provide a better idea of your particular challenges and needs.
