This will allow for a substantial increase, in the number of units that can be produced, in a fraction of the time. Inturn, reducing the overall cost per unit, from the mold, by a much as one third. The "Ballhog", received the annual, International Invention Convention, "Sports Product of the Year" award. The "Ballhog" was licensed by USPet/Sports Specialties Int., who had modest sales in a worldwide market. By their own addmission, the molding process needed the improvement to meet the products full potential. Time past without the "Blow Mold" upgrade and I put production on hold. Before the License Agreement, I marketed and sold the units, also to an international market. I want, along with my sons, to keep the products successful potential moving forward. To do so, a source of financial assistance is requested.

My passion is to open a large Christian Cafe and Restaurant over the next year in Dallas TX with possible restaurant chain potential in other states. This will seat about 150 people and will offer comfortable seating such as love seats sofas and tables. In addiction to that there will be a conference room for pastors luncheons, parties and other functions. There will be a stage for Christian Bands and Karaoke nights. As well as scheduling guest speakers to come and minister on certain nights to couples, singles, men, women and youth. I think this is a much-needed idea for this time and season. I look at this as a Ministry to really give people a great place to hangout and fellowship with great food.

The business objectives of said organization is to develop and market solar based technologies, focusing on Solar Thermal Power generation, Solar Water Heating, and Solar Powered Water Desalination and Purification.  &lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Contact has been made with certain government agencies for the use of government land for development of facilities and favorable tax treatment within such countries.  A business plan is available for consideration as well as projected revenues for a Solar Water Desalination facility.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Why would you invest in such a company?  Because Currently Oil volatility and energy security is a major issue in the world, because companies such as Google have invested tens of millions into such technologies, and because  CSP (Concentrated Solar Power) is a major area of development.  In addition, It is well accepted by the scientific community that the issues of both energy and water are the largest issues facing the world today in a permanent way.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;A href="http://www.sciam.com/article.cfm?id=the-future-of-fuel"&gt;http://www.sciam.com/article.cfm?id=the-future-of-fuel&lt;/A&gt;  this link points to an article from Scientific America which points out the need for both energy and water needs to be solved together rather than independently, because they are inter-related issues.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Again, I am seeking investors for the further capitalization of BONSOLAIRE.  I am seeking to sell an equity stake of 25% of the company in exchange for a 5,000,000 USD investment. Included in this would be the following.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;1. 25% equity stake in the company&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;2. Exclusive rights to the use or sale of technologies developed and manufactured by BONSOLAIRE within your geographic region.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;3. The opportunity to invest in a company dedicated to the most important industries of the 21st century BEFORE the majors such as Google.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;4. Possibility of negotiated buyout of 25% Equity stake in company at favorable pre-arranged conditions as an exit strategy.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;5. Preferred Investor status giving you the option to reinvest to the exclusion of other parties.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Thank you for your consideration, all investment amounts will be readily investigated and negotiations of terms are welcomed.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Christopher Towle&lt;BR&gt;&lt;A href="mailto:christophertowle@bonsolaire.com"&gt;christophertowle@bonsolaire.com&lt;/A&gt;&lt;BR&gt;BONSOLAIRE</description><pubDate>Tue, 18 Nov 2008 07:00:16 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>christophertowle</dc:creator></item><item><title>seeking for VC or an investor</title><link>http://forums.vcfodder.com/Topic1168-84-1.aspx</link><description>&lt;P style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; BACKGROUND: white"&gt;&lt;SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Verdana','sans-serif'; COLOR: #1f5080; FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;PPT Corporation Group is a private company limited which has experienced for alternative energies such as Biodiesel.

We are located in pennsylvania and have all permits required for scrap tire recycling.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;here is a summary of our business plan. I have the full plan if anyone would like to look over it. I can send it via email&lt;/P&gt;&lt;B&gt;&lt;U&gt;&lt;P&gt;SUMMARY OF BUSINESS:&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/B&gt;&lt;/U&gt;&lt;P align=justify&gt;Tire Visions, Inc. ("TVI") was incorporated in June, 2003 for the purpose of acquiring business opportunities in the tire shredding and recycling industry, and currently seeks to develop an operation which manufactures crumb rubber from the recycling of scrap tires. From the millions of newly scrapped tires that become available each year, two products consisting of crumb rubber and steel scrap will be produced and subsequently sold as feedstock to various manufacturers of a wide range of end products including both stand-alone products and products that require installation. According to &lt;U&gt;Scrap Tire News Online&lt;/U&gt; in February, 2003 over 270 million scrapped and discarded tires are available to be processed annually in the United States. In our more immediate geographical region, the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection has indicated more than thirteen million tires are scrapped and available for processing each year in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania alone. With this type of volume, it can be inferred that the business life expectancy of this proposed business will be indefinite.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P align=justify&gt;The selected lease site north of Northern Cambria, Pennsylvania was previously used originally as the main complex of a mining operation by Greenwood Collieries, which was a subsidiary of Pennsylvania Mines Corporation, which itself is a subsidiary of PPL Utilities. The property to be leased to TVI includes buildings of more than 42,000 square feet located on slightly less than 11.50 acres, and while located in a secluded area, it is sufficiently close to major highway access. A description of the property and a map of the general area are shown in Exhibit "A". This proposed reuse of the property for development of a new crumb rubber recycling business represents a positive step for continued redevelopment of former industrial property within northern Cambria County&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P align=justify&gt;The operations of the business will be performed internally, although selected operations or services may be purchased from third parties as necessary. A summary processing flow sheet of the main parts of the proposed operations is attached as Exhibit "B". Arrangements have been discussed with a number of companies for the marketing and sale of crumb rubber and steel scrap, and as part of these discussions, TVI has received four letters of interest from crumb rubber purchasers to take selected quantities of crumb rubber products at a specified (market) price. This volume of crumb rubber effectively represents more than 125% of the forecasted production levels.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P align=justify&gt;The business will consist of the importation of scrap tires for a tipping fee followed by the shredding, separation of metals and subsequent packaging for shipment of the crumb rubber. The steel scrap will similarly be collected and packaged for shipment to steel mill customers. These processes will require the use of rotary shear shredders and granulators for the recycled tires, screens and conveyors for the sizing of the product, and the use of magnets for the extraction of the scrap metal. &lt;/P&gt;&lt;P align=justify&gt;The annual business projection is attached as Exhibit "C" and assumes a very short period of start-up operations, after which annual crumb rubber production is expected to level off at more than&lt;FONT color=#ff0000&gt; &lt;/FONT&gt;17,000 tons of crumb rubber annually. At these forecasted levels of production and based on assumptions listed in the attached projections, TVI expects to realize the following annual production levels in the first full year of operation:&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P align=justify&gt;Tires processed&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P align=justify&gt;Truck 20,280 tons (405,600 tires)&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P align=justify&gt;Automobile 3,380 tons (338,000 tires)&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P align=justify&gt;Annual Revenues $ 4,445,545 &lt;/P&gt;&lt;P align=justify&gt;Annual Expenses $ 2,255,764&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P align=justify&gt;Annual Net Income (AT) $ 1,201,747&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P align=justify&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P align=justify&gt; &lt;/P&gt;&lt;P align=justify&gt;This business plan outlines the need for the development of bank loans supported by USDA Business Development Programs to fund the start of operations and purchase of equipment, for working capital financing supported by accounts receivable and inventory as generated by the business, and the use of limited equity capital. Assistance from state and county business development agencies will be developed as needed and as available. Some of the used equipment, such as the shredders and other crumb rubber equipment will be obtained through capital equipment loans to be acquired by TVI through the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, and in other instances, through private loans.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P align=justify&gt;Both state and county development agencies, particularly the Northern Cambria Community Development Corporation (NORCAM) and the Cambria County Industrial Development Authority, have been very supportive of the project with the anticipated creation of more than 35 full-time hourly and salaried jobs.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P align=justify&gt;The Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection will be requested to provide a General Permit for Processing/Beneficial Use for Residual Waste, specifically for the processing of waste tires. Additionally, TVI intends to employ a local consulting firm for the preparation of all permit applications and for any required follow-ups with Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection.</description><pubDate>Wed, 01 Aug 2007 12:51:50 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>Jhobor</dc:creator></item><item><title>seeking for an investment in mining fluorspar(CaF2)</title><link>http://forums.vcfodder.com/Topic1157-84-1.aspx</link><description>Hello.

Since 19 ive been trying to find investors who share my vison on the potential of the growing market of martial arts. At 20 i gave up on finding help and decided to do it myself, shortly after creating a business plan in one of my entrepreneur class's i raised $65,000 with my brother and invested on a facility to start our project. In feb, 2007 we opened SouthSide muay thai &amp; Submissions to cater to the growing demand for a healthy living. Our financial projection was a deficit for the first 2 years which i was told was common, but to our surprise it never happen. The response in this industry turned out to be amazing, which is why ive resulted to finding financial support. We've run into problems accommodating clients, due to the large demand, and now looking for additional funding to expand our location to help provide for the demand.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;MMA, UFC, WMF, CAM town, IFL... etc&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;These are just some of the leagues which have helped us gain the interests of clients. In the last year we've been recognized through big names like; Karo 'the heat' Parisyan, the next contender in 'contender asia' Shane Campbell, UFC star Houston Alexander who did a seminar, Brandon Vera, GSP, and Mark 'the machine' Hominick. Just to add the 'cherry on top' we've had tons of media coverage, from the local paper to Ottawa's Pete Riley who hosted Toronto's MMA try outs at our gym.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;If your an MMA,UFC fan who shares the same insight on the potential in the MMA market and would like to get involved contact me for more details.

Why not, for a change, let investors come to YOU?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;We will perform the following services:&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Write a tantalizing and informative 3-5 page article about you, your project and your goals with the project, as well as mentioning your desire for investor funding. With this article in hand, we will contact various magazines, newspapers and other printed media to introduce you, and a press request to publish.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Design and create a press release suitable for introduction to the media, which will then be broadcast to global media sources, targeting several countries currently funding in your industry.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Write five more articles related to your project's field or industry, and publish these as social media marketing to be read by the masses.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Think about it. Why is it so hard to find investors? Because 99 times out of 100, THEY'VE NEVER HEARD OF YOU. You are an unknown, with a business they've never seen or heard of. There is something so much better that you can do rather then taking your project to investors who have never heard of you. Our services allow you to TAKE INVESTORS TO YOUR PROJECT. Investors will read about you in a professional medium, and THEY will contact YOU.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;For more information, please contact Scribes Unlimited at 216-371-4752, or by email at info@scribesunlimited.com.

The brand has various sub-labels and product ranges, addressing different price points and catering for both men and women.  &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;We are now in a position to launch, having completed the ground work, project planning and external links.  We now need finance to launch the project.  The total cost of project is in the region of £500,000, we have to date invested £80,000 and hold stock worth in excess of £65,000.  We are looking for funding in the region of £300,000.

One of them has been a reasonably successful upscale home builder in the US for over 20 years.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;They have a preferential position on the acquisition of some land in the Caribbean (DR). This is due to a multi year relationship with the landowner. Suffice to say, they could buy in to a piece of land at 20-30% less than current market value.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;They are looking to develop and build a very high quality townhome and private villa community with a golf course. &lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Regardless, other than the relationship with the landowner, they have no money. One of them has worked for the last year or so (and probably spent $100K or so) putting together a master plan, meeting with 5-star architects, engineers, water treatment people, real estate sales and marketing companies, etc. &lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Total project expense is projected at $325-350 million.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Total project income is projected at $450 million.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I have seen the numbers, and agree with these estimates. &lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Problem is....they need about $30-40 million to get started. Infrastructure, excavation, etc.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Here's the debate....&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;* my opinion is that they are kidding themselves to think they can raise that type of money, with none of their own invested.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;* they feel that since they have a complete presentation, including financial projections and a preferential position on the land, that they will be able to borrow the money from "somewhere". Either a bank loan "guaranteed" by a "backer", or from a "hard money" lender(s). Obviously, they are willing to repay the note inside of 4-5 years, with interest (10% ?)PLUS 30% of the net ($35 million?) to the backer. According to them, they have a "committment" from a NYC hedge fund to do the deal....but no meetings or money has materialized yet (it's been a month).&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I say "BS". What do you say?</description><pubDate>Thu, 17 Apr 2008 10:23:08 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>cdmotor</dc:creator></item><item><title>On demand printing for all your business needs</title><link>http://forums.vcfodder.com/Topic1094-84-1.aspx</link><description>If you need to print a business plan or private placement memos you can do it all with the click of your mouse.

This caused immense destuction to the Central American countries of Nicaragua and the Honduras.  This hurricane turned virgin rainforest into a tree cemetary.  In order to allow the rainforest to grow again these trees need to be harvested.  This also will provide a third world country income to rebuild and eliminates a huge fire hazard.   Costa Rica Premier Realty represents a company with timber concession rights with the Nicaraguan government.  Because of the size of the devastastion and the amount of timber that needs to be harvested they are selling 1000 shares at $10,000 each for a total of $10,000,000.  Most of this money will be used to purchase equipment to harvest the lumber.  Estimates exceed 2,500,000 cubic meters of lumber with a market value of $1 Billion.  The investors' share is projected to be $175,000,000 or $175,000 per share.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;For more information please contact Dan at Costa Rica Premier Marketing.&lt;br&gt;dan@crpremierrealty.com&lt;br&gt;877-609-9562</description><pubDate>Mon, 24 Mar 2008 15:30:12 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>chambedj</dc:creator></item><item><title>Seeking capital</title><link>http://forums.vcfodder.com/Topic1077-84-1.aspx</link><description>GEONAZCA is seeking $500K to acquire used drilling rigs, compressor and support vehicles that we can overhaul.

The production prototype would require about three months to complete and it would include all the relevent suppliers of parts and supplies. &lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;The sales potential is about 2 billion dollars per year in the U.S. alone. The compitition is limited to two companies that control the entire market and by their own studies will not wish to convert to a newer technology. Their own study shows that this product will capture 80 percent of the market if it reaches it.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;The problem I have is that I am an inventor, not a money finder. I don't move in those circles and don't know how to even start getting their attention. I have tried many times in the past without any luck except to attact the scammers.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I need someone who is willing to foot the upfront cost of the production prototype and acquire all the expansion capital required. The enitial prototype was in operation for a year and proved to be quite impressive to all that saw it. The problem with a product of this size is the amount of expansion funds that must be available. Once the demand for the product is established by actual exposure to the trucking industry, any delay in getting the product to the buyers will result in start-ups that will look for a way to get into the demand. Only a well financed company could maintain its "first out" advantage and would not have to worry about any start-up competing with it.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I have a very comprehensive business plan backed by 30 plus years of designing, manufacturing and marketing this type of product to another industry. I am looking for someone, or company, that can supply the management while I share in the development and marketing. I wish to retire in a few years and would like to see the product completed with an eye on future income.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;If you would like further information, I would be happy to discuss my plans or product with you. No proprierty information will be disclosed in preliminary discussions.</description><pubDate>Sun, 21 Oct 2007 12:14:52 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>OregonInventor</dc:creator></item><item><title>Funding for a new international US-Based Healthcaresolutions/BPO company</title><link>http://forums.vcfodder.com/Topic1005-84-1.aspx</link><description>&lt;STRONG&gt;Katonia Tech Solutions (KTS)&lt;/STRONG&gt; is an US based international company that provides high quality health care services and management solutions to physicians, clinics and hospitals in the U.S. market.
