Successful capital raising is often about who you know. Take a moment to hear from someone we know on accessing direct capital for your business.
Capital Raising through Opt-in Investment Sources
There are turning points in the evolution of every business, moments in time where access to capital and strategic knowledge can mean the difference between long-term success and failure.
Too often, even successful companies fall short at critical times. Institutional financing can be impossible to secure, crowdsourcing is unpredictable, and small businesses likely don’t have the internal structure to deal with the complicated accounting and regulatory issues that come with their own fundraising.
Introducing the TAP IDEA
Investor Direct Equity Access can be the answer for businesses at the crossroads. TAP IDEA is a partner platform that combines the resources of an investment bank, the capabilities of crowdsourcing, and connections to vetted, registered, and accredited investors. It’s the edge venture capital firms bring to larger companies at a fraction of the cost.
TAP IDEA’s holistic approach enables corporations to efficiently secure $500,000-$5,000,000 to facilitate growth and take advantage of marketplace opportunities. TAP IDEA network partners have access to:
- Bridge loans
- Accounting systems and corporate governance required by investors
- Introductions that facilitate relationships to a proprietary database of opt-in capital sources
- Front and back-end technology and tools
Did You Know?: 82% of small businesses lack capital at one or more points in their development and subsequently experience cash flow problems.
Fact: The TAP IDEA is a comprehensive source from start to finish, from front-end lending to cover associated fundraising costs to back-end brokerage firm capabilities that can diligently move business agendas forward.
