    I've Read The Millionaire Fastlane!

    GOLD! HOT! 
    I have read the book twice over 6 months ago! Great book. Can't seem to hold a copy because I keep giving them away to budding Entrepreneurs! Given away 5 now and counting. Your book has surpassed "The Art of the Start" in my giving away test; I have given 4 of them away. I am already looking...

    Green Energy Angel Advice

    FDJustin: Thanks, I haven't looked deeply into crowd sourcing our projects funding! I like the idea since we are "strategizing" on creating a movement rather than a plain vanilla or guerrilla marketing plan. I am very familiar with the negotiation side, but I know undoubtedly that each industry...

    Green Energy Angel Advice

    Update: Our power source puts out 400Wh of power at the size of a smartphone and about the same weight! Our technology kills the competition and we are currently building the proof (prototype). I still need advice in seeking investment capital in this industry (ANYONE?). We just told Energizer...

    A Win-Win Joint Venture

    First, know that a JV typically means two entities joining in a cooperation organized as a 3rd party. Whenever a company buys a stake in your parent or sole company, that is an investment. JV's are less risky than investments for this case. To your situation: I do not know how far you are in...

    A Win-Win Joint Venture

    ocean, You are actually talking about vetting our good business partners. This very valid topic is one on it's own. I will start a thread on this soon. I didn't want to open that can of worms here.:smx9:

    A Win-Win Joint Venture

    anacron77, If you want an accurate idea of how to structure such a JV, we need more detail. If this Investor is purchasing a large or controlling stake in your company, this is less a JV and more a 1st or 2nd round investment of growth capital. Have you asked yourself what it really takes to...

    Surrounded by Fish. Learning to Swim

    Off hand, I would say you should research a 504 Regulation D style investment. 35 Unsophisticated Investors and unlimited Sophisticated. Both are Government terms. Reg D 504 is $1,000,000 or less. Good luck.=)

    What are you up to now?

    Russ H, I don't know a thing about the roaches, but I have 2 cents worth advice. Find a cause in your area. My area has Autism. Hold a fundraiser event requiring people to stay at your place. Fundraisers work well even in a down economy. Don't forget to network with the affluent at your event...

    A Win-Win Joint Venture

    Rarely is there profit in going it alone, but good luck to those that try. One day you will awake and realize that you don't need 100% of the profit and it is beneficial to share. You need an example? OK: You decide to start a company which sells marketing services. You partner with (JV) a...

    Unique Marketing System

    MARKETING 
    Technically, we have the ability to provide such services as you mention FDJustin. I recently conceptualized a system with a commercial property investor friend where we installed projectors in front of each store in one of his malls. The projector would access the mobile phones with a certain...

    A Win-Win Joint Venture

    I love joint ventures! All investments made by any VC or angel is really a joint venture. If you don't like them, you haven't evolved quite yet to investing. I do not like to call myself an Angel or VC because they usually breed a stuck up or snobbish image. That said, I do invest in startups...

    What are you doing to get wholesalers (or whoever your customers would be)? It sounds as though you haven't done enough to get customers for your product. I am assuming you sell a cheaper version of a product in your industry, but lack the facilities to follow through? In this case, I would...

    A Win-Win Joint Venture

    Joint ventures are critical to small business and highly beneficial to all other size business. The secret to all successful negotiations is the "Win-Win" scenario. All negotiations can be "Win-Win" regardless of what you may have heard. I have staked my company on it more than once. Oh, don't...

    Unique Marketing System

    MARKETING 
    bateati, I appreciate your viewpoint. Sending customers directly to the product without collecting information converts much less than you think. If I was wrong, many landing pages wouldn't collect name & email for newsletters, or free brochures, or some free info product; which is a common...
