Truth About Funding

How To Raise ALL The Money You Need To Start or Grow Your Business!

Dave-Headshot-Circle2

Hi, this is Dave Lavinsky, and on this page, you will learn the #1 reason why entrepreneurs like you fail to raise money for your business.

And more importantly, you'll learn exactly what you can do about it RIGHT NOW to successfully raise all the money you need.

But let's start by talking about why you don't have the funding you need to start or grow your business.

Why Aren't You "Funded"?

Typically there are 3 reasons why you don't have the funding you need:

1. You've never raised money before

2. You don't know all the money sources that are available to you

3. You're only going after the ordinary, obvious money sources

And the problem is this...

If you fail to raise money:

  • You can't start your business
  • You can't grow your business
  • You can't compete
  • You can't achieve your goals

  • But the good news is that in a moment I'm going to show you how you CAN raise money by avoiding the #1 money raising mistake and raising money the right way.

    But first...you may be wondering what makes me qualified to tell you how to raise money for your business...

    As I mentioned above, my name is Dave Lavinsky, and I am the President of Growthink. For over a decade, Growthink has helped thousands of entrepreneurs like you raise money for their businesses...

    And our clients have raised over $2,500,000,000.00

    And that's why I have been interviewed by every major news source, including the ones on the list below, on all types of ways to raise money for businesses...

    Avoid this Funding Mistake

    So, let's talk about the #1 reason why entrepreneurs like you fail to raise money.

    The #1 Funding Mistake To Avoid

    The biggest funding mistake to avoid is going after the WRONG sources of money!

    And unfortunately, most entrepreneurs go after the sources of money which are the hardest to raise...and that's why they never get the funding they need.

    To illustrate this and to teach thousands of entrepreneurs how to successfully raise money, we created the Growthink Funding Pyramid™...

    As you can see, the Growthink Funding Pyramid™ has 10 slices, each representing a type of money you can raise for your business...

    The types on the bottom, like 'Quick Loaners' are simple to raise, and the types on the top like 'Institutional Equity' are very hard to raise...

    And the problem is that most entrepreneurs try to raise money at the top of the pyramid, and FAIL.

    Let me explain more...

    'Institutional Equity' (at the top of the pyramid) is investments from institutions like venture capital firms, private equity firms and corporations...

    This is by far the hardest money to raise. And, you can't raise it unless you've met certain conditions, such as already having customers or revenues, being in specific market sectors, etc...

    So it's no surprise that 99% of entrepreneurs who start by trying to raise this type of capital FAIL.

    It's like a high school athlete trying out for the pros. Sure sometimes, they make the team. But 99.9% of the time, they have to prove themselves first in college...

    With raising money, you have to do the same thing.

    The #1 Secret to Success

    The "trick" to getting funding is to work your way UP the pyramid...

    You start by raising the easier sources of money at the bottom first, and then gain access to the harder sources near the top...

    Let me give you an example of a company that I'm sure you've heard of...

    When Google first tried to raise venture capital (which is at the very top of the pyramid) it FAILED.

    And if Google stopped there, the company would have failed, and we would have never heard of it...

    But Google started over, at the bottom of the pyramid...

    It raised money from quick loaners...

    It got money from banks.

    Google got vendor financing.

    Then Google got an angel investment...

    And the year after that, Google raised $25 million in venture capital, at the very top of the pyramid...

    The point once again is that Google couldn't raise venture capital from Day 1...

    Google needed to raise the other, easier sources first, and start growing the business before it qualified to raise the larger but harder sources of money...

    So to successfully raise money, you need to start with the sources at the bottom, and then you can move up the pyramid...

    But that's not all...

    To successfully raise money, you also need to follow my FIVE most important fundraising rules:

    The 5 RULES Of Funding

    Rule #1

    Don't Post Online


    Don't post your business plan or idea online hoping someone will magically fund you.

    This never works!

    Rule #2

    Understand the 41 Sources
    of Capital Available to You


    Remember, I told you the #1 reason why entrepreneurs fail to raise money is because they go after the wrong sources of money!

    Well, you must know all of the 41 proven funding sources for entrepreneurs so you can choose the ones that are a fit for your company...

    Rule #3

    Tell People About Your Business
    Ideas if You Want Them to Fund You


    Many entrepreneurs are afraid that others might steal their ideas, but clearly, if you don't tell investors your ideas, they can't possibly fund you.

    And since investors no longer sign non-disclosure agreements, you must use the "staged divulgence" method of conveying your ideas while protecting them...

    Rule #4

    Develop a Clear, Compelling 15-60 Second Pitch


    And your pitch must enlighten and excite investors.

    This is why "high concept pitches" and "PTS pitches" are most effective.

    Rule #5

    Get Others to Help You


    Finding and leveraging your "affinity group" and "advisors" is the simplest way to get tons of funding.

    And doesn't cost a dime.

    So there you have it.

    If you follow my Funding Pyramid and my 5 rules, you are virtually guaranteed to raise all the money you need for your company..

    To make sure you raise even more money even faster, I want you to know exactly what money sources are thinking about when you speak with them...

    That's why when you purchase "The Truth About Funding" today, I'm going to give you for free the opportunity to eavesdrop on 15 "closed door" conversations I recorded with venture capitalists, serial "funded" entrepreneurs, angel investors, bankers and social lending experts...

    And I've included these recorded conversations in a product I call "Insider Secrets to Raising Capital"

    What secrets will YOU discover?

  • A world-famous venture capitalist will reveal the 3 things you must NEVER say in a VC meeting... unless you want to get laughed out of the room...

    I not only want you to raise money quickly and easily...

    But I want you to CONTROL the terms with which you raise money...

    You can control the terms, because I'm also including my "Funding On Your Terms" program in this offer...

    This is some of my most advanced and powerful information, which is why I haven't released it to the public...until now.

    In "Funding On Your Terms" I teach you the 15 negotiating terms that you MUST know about when raising equity funding...

    I show you which ones REALLY matter -- and which ones don't (so you can "cave in" on the issues that don't matter and get a great deal on the ones that do)...

    Most entrepreneurs negotiate the WRONG issues, and end up with a raw deal -- but YOU won't, after you get "Funding On Your Terms"

    And then I teach you how to avoid the one thing you must not let happen -- letting someone else steal your idea...

    You see, virtually NO investors will sign a Non-Disclosure Agreement or NDA. Which means there's nothing stopping them from telling the world about what you're doing. Or stealing your ideas themselves..

    But you won't have to worry about that.... Because I'll give you my special technique for keeping others from stealing your ideas while you raise money...

    So, to recap: You're going to quickly and easily raise the money you need for your business using my "The Truth About Funding" program...

    Please Read and Understand this Carefully

    If you're on the fence right now just imagine what might happen if you DON'T take action...

    If your business idea is good, then you can bet that right now, someone else has the same or a similar idea...

    I mean consider this strikingly true quote from a savvy investor:

    "Ideas are pretty commoditized these days, so it's almost a certainty that a few other people out there have already thought of the same business idea as you, and are probably even starting it up already."

    And if those other people raise money before you, and get a leg up on you, your chances of success may fade...

    Don't let competitors be the ones to raise money and leave you in the dust...
