Raising Capital for Start-up And Early Stage Companies: The Secrets of Wall Street

"The Secrets of Wall Street - Raising Capital for Start-Up & Early Stage Companies" addresses a massive unmet need for the 25 Million U. S. small businesses, as well as, the 600,000 start-ups formed each year…access to venture capital directly from individual investors. In good times and bad, only 1.5% of small businesses receive funding from venture capital firms, leaving 98.5% with no where to turn, until now. The Secrets of Wall Street details how entrepreneurs can successfully raise substantial amounts of venture capital on their own by creating a "finance department" within their company. An "in-house" finance department enables one to compete directly with financial institutions, i.e. venture capital firms, for individual investor funds. The book explains how to: • Quickly, easily and effectively raise substantial amounts of venture capital from individual investors through the issuance of privately and publicly placed securities; • Build a self-funding finance department that enables you to deal from a relative position of strength in all financial matters; • Produce securities offering documents with "marketable" deal structures at a fraction of the traditional time and cost, while maintaining the vast majority of common equity ownership and voting control; • Use securities as currency to purchase assets or acquire competitors. It’s a turn-key finance department in a book!
