Raising Money For A Green Business
What is 'capital'?
How do I raise capital for my green business?
Most people have business plans that are written, that have projections and great PowerPoint presentations; take all that and toss it. Green businesses don't work on that model. It's a new business, and when you're looking to raise capital first you have to have a great idea and a great product, and you have to test it and you have to get about a year, a year and a half of definable data, specific data, showing the mechanisms of your product. Then you can go out and you can shop for capital. Typically you, in the green business, like all businesses, you need to prove that the product is on market.
