We have discussed with so many companies last 4 weeks regarding capital raising - there has been very mixed views when comes capital raising strategies. Some have used brokers or advisors, but found them disappointing, so are brokers or corporate advisors really the answer to capital raising?

The answer is yes - but it is not the only avenue you should explore, I think that is why many companies are unable to raise capital. Capital raising is a very difficult business even in good economy, and you can expect how difficult it is in this tough time.

But is it because your advisor is not performing? Not so - but you should provide other supports to assist you in capital raising as well.  Commission only may sound good for you, but basically this means in most cases, you will not be given priority. Without any marketing expenses in investor relations, basically no one will know what your company is doing, and as the matter of fact, makes the capital raising much harder.

You maybe against the idea in paying some upfront fees, but honestly, this is just like IPO and any form of new product launch - without any marketing and advertising effort, you can have the best product in the world - but still no revenue.

I think the best solution to capital raising is to keep all options open - ultimately, broker or not - you are the one who is going to “sell your story”, not the broker, and if marketing is tight as we all are these days, keep things simple, and focus your marketing activities on online activities - as they are really cost-effective compared to other alternatives.asterix and the vikings dvd road to bali divx movie online watch final season the in divx download gabriel dvd all the boys love mandy lane dvdrip download
