Need investment to grow site

[Mitch3473]

Got to love the sales pitch and the summary though....reads like a pop up on a dodgy porn site.











So I've been told.

What do you mean? It wasn't a proper sales pitch. This is a forum. I was just highlighting what was being offered and then a summary of the main points in brief, not in any particular order. Also, I never sought investment before in a formal manner, so do not have experience of such.

I will likely create a proper pitch on Angel Investment Network over the coming day or two.

So why bother to post on here?

Good luck with Angels. They would have some hard questions if they even bothered to respond to you.

I posted here in case there are potential investors lurking. This is a business forum after all.

I will be prepared for those. I think I would have better chance there because its where investors are looking to put money to good use.

As you only want 2000 why not ask family and friends or ask the bank for a personal loan, rather than giving away nearly a third of your company.

There are potential investors lurking. Just it appears not for your offer.

Yes, putting money to good use.
Not wasting it, not usually taking big risks with poor performers.

He'd have the cash himself in just a few months.

I think you guys are right that I am giving away too much for too little. I will be offering 20% (rather than the 30% I proposed here) for £2000 when I make the pitch on AIN. This will value the site at £10k. 20% I will be okay with as it's a figure that won't hurt myself too much yet big enough to give the investor something really worthwhile.

Having an investor on board won't be a bad thing. I think it will give me extra motivation to make the site succeed all the more because, you know, you then have someone to impress for showing/having faith in you.
