  2. Have excellent financial plan with solid data on ROI

Have you looked into outside non-bank funding? Asset based loans? YES you have assets if you have customers, orders and the like? Please provide an email address so that I can share with you additional information

1. Prepare your business plan.

2. Define your funding target level and decide how you want to achieve it.

3. Decide how much you will finance with your own equity, bank loan, and think if you want to raise equity investment for part of your equity (someone mentioned Venture Capitalists, but you can also think of Angel Investors (private individuals))

4. Turn these ideas into Private Placement Memorandum.

5. Distribute your PPM among this community (or if you are concerned about privacy, selectively target members)

6. Think who else you can reach out to - family members? friends? other angel investors? some Fortune 500 companies who have Coprorate Responsibility Strategies and targets and would be interested in supporting your business... Whole Foods? Oil Companies? Think creatively!

Do you have solid intake and offtake agreements. Most bio-diesel plants are sitting empty. Feedstock prices have gone sky high. I would be interested in looking at your business plan. Please send it to msfcapital1@verizon.net

Do you have a business plan? If so, please email that to me. I know of a few sources that might help you this funding.

If you need a business plan, I can create that for you as well (for a fee).

Depending on how much funding you are looking for - I might be able to refer you to investors that have interest in the alternative energy space. Our firm has supported a range of clean tech companies. As such, we have developed relationships with a handful of investors active in this space. I would be happy to provide you introductions.
