Business Capital 101 by Roberta A. Pellant,Tony Drexel-Smith Pdf

The purpose of this book is to define the process and protocols of the TASASS™ score. It also serves as the textbook for the USCGA™ TASASS™ certification course. It was written as a manual for students, entrepreneurs, finance professionals, advisors, and consultants. It defines the types of capital available and documentation requirements to achieve “success” in the capital marketplace. "Success" is defined as a trifecta of: 1) the enterprise acquiring capital; 2) the business becoming successful and 3) the capital source(s) receiving a positive outcome. Business Capital 101 provides clarity in an otherwise complicated environment of gaining access to capital for qualified enterprises. Our mission is to provide a compliant, professional, time-sensitive, cost-conscious, and realistic approach to the business finance process. We accomplish this mission by the implementation of a due diligence process known as the TASASS™ score. The TASASS™ score was developed as a result of a study of more than 300 enterprises engaged by me since 2008 wherein, I was able to determine the more than 300 common attributes amongst successful and failed ventures. The TASASS™ score is a combination of a Transaction Analysis™ (TA), a Situation Analysis™ (SA) implemented in a Software (S) that results in a Score (S). The TASASS™ score is a standardized objective due diligence process that serves capital markets during the enterprise vetting phase of capitalization. The software was created based on a 10-year study of 300 applicants. The goal of the proprietary Software as a Service (SaaS) is to identify opportunities that achieve a TASASS™ score in excess of 92.5%, known as “TASASS Prime™.” TASASS™ is an acronym for: Transaction Analysis Situation Analysis Scoring Software™. The TASASS™ score was developed by Tony Drexel Smith through the financial and human capital resources of: TASASS, Inc, The Association of Blue Moon Advisors, Blue Moon Advisors, Inc., Blue Moon Consortium, Inc., US Capital Global, SUMATICI, Inc., and TD Smith & Associates. Enterprises that have raised capital successfully have the following commonalities: they sought the right type of capital for their stage of development and ability to repay; they created documentation that speaks to the correct capital; and they earned a minimum of 925 out of the 1,000 points possible in our TASASS™ score.

The Art of Raising Capital by Darren Weeks Pdf

Darren Weeks is Canada’s most prominent financial educator. He is the Founder of the Fast Track Group of Companies, an acclaimed solutions-based financial literacy firm and one of the nation’s fastest-growing companies. For nearly a decade and a half, Darren has spoken to hundreds of thousands of people across North America, Europe and Latin America about how to become financially independent. He is an advocate of learning how to create wealth through business and investment, and believes that this vital knowledge is lacking from traditional education. In fact, in every country that he has spoken Darren has seen that schools do not teach their students to manage money. Darren has made it his mission to fill that void by providing financial education to people across the world. He went from an average middle-class upbringing to raising hundreds of millions of dollars in investor capital, owning nearly 5,000 real estate properties, millions of dollars in energy assets and acquiring two cruise ship terminals in the Caribbean. All of this was accomplished by educating himself on how to do it and then taking action. There is no greater expert on the art of raising capital from investors and no person more committed to sharing this information than Darren Weeks.

The Six Secrets of Raising Capital by Bill Fisher Pdf

Based on Bill Fisher's master-class seminars featured at The World Bank, The University of California and Draper University, this book offers the kind of capital-raising street smarts that most entrepreneurs never tap into until it is too late. Fisher organizes the capital-raising process into six clear steps, and then breaks through the myths to reveal the triggers for success. For example, entrepreneurs are told that great business ideas get funded. Not true--great business stories get funded, and those stories all have a similar construction and shape, which can be learned. And yes, you need investors, but investors come with their own personality issues. You need the right match for long-term success, not just whoever is waving the biggest check. This book allows you to prepare for your investor meetings with a capital-raising expert coaching your every step.
