From Catina

After a conversation with a friend this morning..I decided to email list of sites for everyone's benefit. There are sites on the Internet that can help you start and expand your business or your entertainment project with money that you don't have to repay. People contribute money to you because of the rewards you offer to them. The internet sites take a small percentage of the money you earn. Best of all, you pay no upfront money and don't have to pass a credit check. There are several sites listed below choose which is best for you. Please pass the knowledge to family and friends.


Call me with questions.

Grow VC:

http://www.growvc.com/main/

According to TechCrunch:

Grow VC is a new community funding model for technology startups. Here’s how it works: Grow VC will pool 75 per cent of membership fees into a community fund that gets invested back into ‘promising startups’ which are members of the platform. The fund is managed by Grow VC but all the investment decisions are left to members who determine how to invest their portion of the fund into other startup companies that they feel have the most potential. The most successful decision makers get financially rewarded when the community fund begins earning a return on investment. So, if you promote the best companies you make moola.
