Investors/Funding

[LINCOLNLORD]

I have recently launched my new business which is property related and am getting a slow trickle if leads and an above average conversion rate for the sector. I know the conversion rate will average out and the only way to achieve my plans is to increase the number of leads so...........

How would I go about approaching someone for assistance with marketing costs? I suppose almost a JV approach where someone puts in x amount a month and gets x percentage as a return.

I'd be looking at hundreds rather than thousands initially. Any ideas as to the best place to meet/approach suitable people and the form any agreement should/could take?

Many thanks as always

Sorry, what are you seeking the funds for?

Thanks for replying. Funding would be to assist with marketing/advertising costs. I know other companies have done this purely to pay for radio advertisements/newspaper ads etc.

Quick home buyers, any objection to me sending you a pm? Have a lead. Not sure if it would be of interest to you or not

If you can substantiate your cost per conversion so that investors believe they are buying into a £X.XX will yield £X.XX * [insert multiplier here], then you could go a number of routes and get people.

Rather than JV with someone to give you cash to pay for marketing expenses, why not approach the marketing people and look for the JV directly?
