Hi,
I am a professional business consultant and coach with experience in writing a number of successful grant applications, ranging from $1,000 to $500,000+.
For a business like yours, my proposal is to run a crowdfunding campaign to get you your first $25,000 of sales/working capital. I will work closely with you to determine the best platform and model of crowdfunding project to run, and then manage the process on your behalf.
My bid seems high, but you will note it is 5% of the proposed funding raised, which you won't have to pay until AFTER you receive the funding.
You would be required to provide products to those early funders of your business, as they would function like pre-orders, so we need to be sure you can fulfill those orders, but we can talk about structuring the project to make that as easy as possible for you.
Let's chat more about how we can make this work for you.
