ForumsStarting a Business

Hello ,

My name is Sarah Romagnoli and I am the Publisher of Volusia/Flagler FAMILY LIVING Magazine, which is a print and online magazine serving the families of Volusia and Flagler Counties, Florida. Our website is http://www.volusiafamilyliving.com/ .

Although I started the magazine on a shoestring, we have paid distribution at all the 7-11's, Food Lions, Winn Dixies, BlockBuster Videos and K-Marts in the area and in hundreds of professional offices and locally owned establishments throughout the two county area. We are also excited that we will be at the front offices of all of the schools and libraries as well.

The magazine is free and is supported solely by advertisers. We would like to attract more local advertisers and more corporate accounts. We would also like to have more space devoted to articles.

In order to have more space devoted to articles we need to have better paying advertisers.

In order to have better paying advertisers we need to change our printing process so the magazine is more clean, clear and professional.

In order to change our printing process we have to change printers.

In order to change printers we need capital. (The printer we have been using works on terms with us and the "new" printer must be paid up front. The cost of the "better" process is actually less, but it must be paid in full and up-front).

These changes will not only allow us to make the magazine exactly what we desire it to be, with more articles (able to have a greater impact on readers) and less advertising, but will also make it much more profitable by allowing us to charge a premium for the advertising and attract large regional and national advertisers.

We have also, due to demand, expanded North into Flagler County . Palm Coast , the Largest city in Flagler County , is still growing rapidly and is a great place for families and businesses. In order to incorporate Flagler County , reach the families of Flagler County and advertise for the businesses in Flagler County , we must add to our

distribution sites to include Flagler County .

The only thing standing between us and a more professional magazine that is widely distributed and desired by advertisers, including regional and national companies (that pay well) is a modest amount of capital.

I am looking to acquire $10k to $20k, from whatever source is available.

My credit is terrible due to a divorce.

I know that some places purchase future credit card payments. I have only been accepting credit cards for 2 months and have a monthly average of between $2500 and $3000 per month.

What I am looking for is someone who believes in family values and wants to help a magazine that promotes those values, while earning a lucrative return on their investment either as a lender or equity partner.

I'm looking for investors for a full length horror film based on a critically acclaimed and controversial short film entitled The 9th Circle. The entire film can be shot for around 60k with new Red One camera technology. Horror films have a built in market and have the greatest chance of returning a profit over every other genre. Many indie horror films have gone on to become box office gold such as Halloween, Evil Dead and The Blaire Witch Project. Below are the links to the short film and some reviews. If you're interested, please contact me for details.

Thank you.

I am also interested in an investor. I own a company called Innovative
Technologies and my business partner owns a company called The Schlott
Company and we have just joined forces but need capital in our industry
to continue to grow and expand. We are an Internet Marketing, Computer
Consulting industry with an expanding portfolio and client basis but
without the capitol to get larger contracts, better technology, and
more workers we basically have plateaued.

Example: Bigger contracts require you to have 8 to 10 thousand feet of
cat5e and cat6 with all the other products and generally when you get
awarded you will recieve 30% deposit and the rest upon completion but
30% is not nearly enough to meet all the material and labor
requirements.

Example #2: When you get a contract to completly redue the entire
marketing and business profitability of a company we need to produce
samples, presentations and get approvals but to get those samples and
eventually to execute the project you need your own video production
space rather renting the spot for 250 bucks an hour. Now if we can save
that 250 bucks an hour we can potentially reduce the overall cost to
the client and secure the proposal and be effective in producing the
desired results.

I am looking for 1 or a few Venture Capitalist, Angel Investors to
invest 10M to 50M so within the next 24 to 36 months be aqwuired for
about 85M to 130M we are also looking to aquire a few other firms and
combining them all together as 1 corporation.

If you are interested please contact me.
