Why did you launched CrowdFunding Planning ?

Why did you launched CrowdFunding Planning ? I manage few small businesses, I tried to raise money through traditional methods  such as bank lending, venture cap and I was not successful. I took this very personal since I have been managing business successfully for past 20 years . I am a trained engineer , the I started  looking  for the reasons and solution Crowd Funding planning  was launched to Establish a framework within which we can create and add value to the CrowdFunding community. this includes fund raiser , investors and CrowdFunding portals I am also very passionate about open system and crowdFunding   What was the main reasons you could not raise the funds you needed to grow your business and develop the new products and services with  traditional funding  methods? I found out due to current economy  Banks do not loan to start ups or  new ventures. and for established business ,they still require to see more than assets and proof of business , they want to see steady cash flow which is not easy or available  . Also,  I learned due to low interest rate lending is too risky for them How about venture caps and angles investors? Well due to Real Estate deflation, my usual family Angeles are no longer available for investments , and I knew from past venture caps and angel investor invest in less than 2% of entrepreneurial ventures Then what ?, In early 2011,  I learned of CrowdFunding as a new method of Capital Fund Raising fund through the 99% or  the “ crowd" rather than the standard way through 1% . Then,  I put together a team to study and learn about CrowdFunding Are you referring to banks, VCs and AIs as the  “1%”? Yes What did you learn ? Many , many things  but the top five are ; There are many good, practical and money making ideas available, but due to our current economic situation ,  Entrepreneurs , SMBs and Start ups can not raise the see money Entrepreneurs , SMBs and Startups in average have  access to less than $ 5 to $10 thousands to build their dream but they need between of   $25 to $100 thousands . I am referring to the see money to create enough to show proof of concept Mostly do not really know what is CrowdFunding , what is available to them and  even the one that they do  know what “CrowdFunding is” ,  they do not build the Crowd , The team and the cloud needed  and they just go after  the Funding There are many associations built by attorneys and venture caps which are focusing on CrowdFunding Equity based and almost no resources  offering real practical advice and best practice methods  to  Entrepreneurs , SMBs and Startups . Interestingly many do not even  try CrowdFunding and the one they do more than 76% fail  due to lack of planning. Ok, then that is the reason you called it CrowdFunding Planning ? Yes , we put all our finding , resource and now hows in this portal What are the goals and vision Our Goal is simple, We are believer and practitioner of open system methodology . CrowdFunding is also  an open system  of capital creation  Our  vision is to build educational  and crowdsourcing portals that can assist  Entrepreneurs , SMBs and Startups  to have high rate of Crowdfunding success with  no or very  low investment.

Are you claiming CrowdFunding can  help VC’s and AI’s by lowering their risk of investment Yes I know for a fact.  that by the time they complete their 1st Crowdfunding, they will have all require structure and show maturity and proof of concept What about the one which are not a success They still end up with a highly efficient business infrastructure and my suggestion is Try , try again .
