<p>Private Money Investors in the JV Network Company network have become more cautious in their willingness to invest since the global economic crisis. Although they are still interested in placing their private money into good projects, they are taking more time to do their due diligence.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>Private Money Funding At 100% Is Rare</strong></p>
<p>The norm before the economic crisis was that a private investor would be willing to fund the entire project. That&#8217;s 100% funding. Now the private money investors are only willing to fund at 95% to 98%. Some private money investor may still fund a project at the 100% level, but that is rare in this economic climate.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>Private Investors Use Business T</strong><strong>ru</strong><strong>sts To Fund Projects</strong></p>
<p>The other big change in the way many of the private money investors are making their offers to fund projects is that they are using a business trust type of arrangement as a means to provide funds.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>Private Investors Will Provide Private Money For 95% To 98% Of Project Needs</strong></p>
<p>What this means is that the request for funds will only be funded at 95% to 98% of the amount requested, and that the remaining 2% to 5% needed will have to be acquired from some other source prior to the investor giving any funds. In addition, the 2% to 5% must be in cash and placed into an escrow account before proceeding to get any funding documents prepared.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>The Current Economic Climate Requires 2% To 5% Cash To Get<br />Big Money Funding</strong></p>
<p>So in this economic climate you now need to have 2% to 5% of the funds necessary to make your project work already available prior to gaining any big money for funding a project from a private money investor in the JV Network Company&#8217;s investor network.</p>
<p>If this type of arrangement is something that you can live with, then the private money available through <em><strong><a title="AccessToPrivateMoney.com" href="http://accesstoprivatemoney.com/index.htm#frm">Access to Private Money</a></strong></em> may be able to get you to funding you want.</p>

<p>When you have a great idea and you&#8217;re looking for a Private Money Investor or Private Money Lender, you need to do some work first before presenting it to the investor.  Investors want to see <strong>Business Plans</strong> and not ideas.  Ideas are a dime a dozen and not worth much more.</p>
<p align="center"><strong>Create A Business Plan</strong></p>
<p>If you want to be taken seriously as someone who knows what they&#8217;re doing, you have to have a business plan.  You have to <span class="highlight">put the work in first</span> before approaching any investor.</p>
<p>Think of it this way.  If you were the investor, wouldn&#8217;t you want to know exactly how someone wanted to use your money and how you would be paid back.  You&#8217;d want to know what the risks are in the investment.  The Private Money Lender is no different.  They need to know as much as possible before they&#8217;ll commit to any investment.</p>
<p><strong><em>Access To Private Money</em></strong> deals with an investor network of multi-million dollar investors.  They will not consider any project without a good executive summary and business plan.  So we cannot accept any project that doesn&#8217;t have that spelled out.</p>
<p align="center"><strong>We Need The Plan And Not The Idea</strong></p>
<p>So the next time you have an idea of how to make money, (that&#8217;s the basic purpose of <em>all</em> businesses) consider developing a complete business plan prior to seeking funding.  Your chances of success will be thousands of times greater.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;re new at developing a business plan check out <a title=" Entrepreneur.com Business Plan" href="http://www.entrepreneur.com/businessplan/index.html" target="_blank">Entrepreneur.com</a> for what needs to be in a business plan.  They give a good guideline as a place to start.  In addition, there are many services that will develop a plan for you for a fee.</p>
<p>So when you send us information about your new business proposal, send a business plan and not an idea.</p>

<!-- ALL ADSENSE ADS DISABLED -->
<p>Over and Over and Over again I get questions about meeting fees and needing millions fast for some special reason to fund a project. The reality is that <strong>NO </strong>Private Money Investor or Private Money Lender will give you millions of dollars FAST. They’d be crazy to do so. And NO project is accepted without paying a meeting hosting fee.</p>
<p>Not all projects are accepted for submission. You need to meet certain criteria in order for your project to be accepted for consideration. See blog post for <a href="http://accesstoprivatemoney.com/blog/archives/2007_08_15_4">Private Money JV Funding For A Few Good Clients. Do You Qualify?</a> for the kinds of projects we are looking for.</p>
<p align="center"><strong>So Here’s The Deal</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>If you <span class="highlight">CAN’T or WON’T</span> pay any meeting hosting fees – BUZZZZZZ Game Over!<br />
Your project WILL NOT be placed before any investors in the Private Money Investor Network.</li>
<p><br class="spacer_" /></p>
<li>If your project needs to be funded <strong><em>in less than 60 days</em></strong>, there’s no way this investor network would be able to fund your project.<br />
It just takes longer for everyone to check things out.</li>
<p><br class="spacer_" /></p>
<li>If your project is in one of the <a title="No Funding Locations" href="http://accesstoprivatemoney.com/no-funding-locations.htm">NO Funding </a>areas of the world, <span class="highlight">NO investor in the Private Money JV Investor Network will fund your project</span>.<br />
It doesn’t matter whether other investors are funding there, it’s a great place to live, and you believe your project is the best in the world. It just isn’t going to happen.</li>
</ul>
<p align="center"><strong>The Basic Private Money Funding Requirements</strong></p>
<ol>
<li>You MUST pay meeting hosting fees – NO exception</li>
<p><br class="spacer_" /></p>
<li>Your project does not have to be funded immediately</li>
<p><br class="spacer_" /></p>
<li>Your project is NOT in a <a title="NO Funding Locations" href="http://accesstoprivatemoney.com/no-funding-locations.htm">NO Funding Location</a></li>
</ol>
<p>So if your project fits into any one of these categories, we’ll consider it. Otherwise don’t bother to send it in. You’re only wasting your time and it will not be accepted for Private Money JV Funding.</p>
<p>If this sounds harsh to you, please don’t take it personally. I want you to know the hard facts about what is required so that you can decide if this is the right option for you.</p>
<p>The reality is that there are hundreds of Private Money JV Investors looking for projects, and there is money available. But the JV Network Company we work with has certain requirements. If you can meet these requirements, you may get the JV Funding you’re looking for.</p>
<p>If you <strong>can</strong> meet these requirements, I am eager to help you get the money you’re looking for.</p>

<p>You have probably heard the phrase “there is no free lunch.” And that is true in almost any endeavor. For the Private Money Investor or Private Money Lender, finding a project to invest in requires a lot of work and many times a lot of up front expense.</p>
<p>For the person or firm looking for private investors to fund their project there is a lot of time and expense involved there too.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>Private Investing Costs Money</strong></p>
<p>So starting or expanding any project gets expensive for both sides. What does that mean to you? It means that “there is no free lunch.” You need to develop a good business plan. That costs either time or money or both. Then you need to find a Private Investor. That also costs time and/or money.</p>
<p>We at <strong><em>Access To Private Money</em></strong> work with a JV Network Company that has put together a Private Money Investor Network. This cuts down the time involved in finding the private investor. However, that company gets paid in 3 ways:</p>
<ol>
<li>Investors pay a fee to be able to view incoming projects</li>
<li>Clients seeking funding pay a meeting hosting fee to meet with the investors</li>
<li>When a project is funded by an investor, the investor pays points on the amount funded to the JV Network Company.</li>
</ol>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>What You Pay … And Where It Goes</strong></p>
<p>To work with us at <strong><em>Access To Private Money</em></strong> to get your project funded <span class="highlight">you MUST pay the non-refundable meeting hosting fee</span> to the JV Network Company <strong>before</strong> you can have an investor meeting. <span class="highlight"><em>That fee goes to the JV Network Company</em></span> to cover the costs of running the investor – client meeting.</p>
<p><strong><em>Access To Private Money</em></strong> has NO control of the actual investor – client meeting, and the requirement for a fee by the JV Network Company. In addition, <span class="highlight"><strong><em>Access To Private Money</em></strong> cannot make that fee payment for any client seeking funding.</span> And the meeting hosting fee cannot be paid as part of the fee due to <em><strong>Access To Private Money</strong></em> when the project is funded.</p>
<p>When and if the project is funded through the Private Investor Network you pay points to <strong><em>Access To Private Money</em></strong> on the amount actually funded. These funds come out of the money the investor is putting into your project at the time of closing the deal.</p>
<p>The amount of the meeting hosting fees is spelled out in the PDF file <strong><em>Joint Venture Funding Guidelines and Procedures</em></strong> which you receive when you <a title="Request JV Funding Information" href="http://accesstoprivatemoney.com/index.htm#frm">request private money funding information</a>.</p>

<!-- ALL ADSENSE ADS DISABLED -->
<p>When you want to get Private Money Joint Venture Funding, you need to have a meeting with the private investor who wants to fund your project.  At this point in the process you are dealing with a very interested person.  The private investor has already reviewed your material and has already said that they would like to fund your project.</p>
<p><strong>So why have a meeting?</strong></p>
<p>Now the private investor wants to know more about you than about your project.  Exactly who are you, and why should you be the one to make your project go to completion?  If you have included substantial information about your project, the investor doesn&#8217;t need to know more about the project.</p>
<p><strong>The Investor Will Verify Your Facts</strong></p>
<p>Sure, the private money investor will verify your actual factual data.  But now the investor wants to know about you.  Now&#8217;s the time to tell your story and create a friendly relationship with the investor.</p>
<p>There was a recent article in the Business &amp; Technology section of the Contra Costa Times by Scott Duke Harris.  The article talked about <a title="Scott Duke Harris of Media News" href="http://www.contracostatimes.com/search/ci_6845010?IADID=Search-www.contracostatimes.com-www.contracostatimes.com&amp;nclick_check=1" target="_blank">Jerry Weissman&#8217;s &#8220;Coaching the perfect pitch.&#8221;</a>  In the article there&#8217;s a quote &#8220;No one knows how to tell a story. And no one knows they don&#8217;t know how to tell the story.&#8221;</p>
<p><strong>The JV Funding Investor Meeting Is All About Story</strong></p>
<p>The JV Funding meeting is ALL about story, your story.  The investor wants to know your story.  The investor wants to know who you are.  Are you trustworthy?  If the investor is going to put millions of dollars into your project, he/she wants to be sure that the he/she has a good sense of who you are.</p>
<p><strong>The 8 Hour Meeting &#8211; Not All Presentation</strong></p>
<p>This is why a whole day is scheduled for the investor meeting.  It&#8217;s not so much about you presenting your project in PDF of Power Point.  The investor could easily read that. Instead it&#8217;s a time for the private money investor to get to know you  &#8211; who you really are.  It&#8217;s a time to tell your story.  It&#8217;s a time to be a real person, someone who the investor can feel comfortable dealing with and have faith that you will perform what you say you want to do.</p>
<p><strong>The Relationship Bond</strong></p>
<p>If you can be a real person and come across as trustworthy, you&#8217;ll probably get your funding, even if your project isn&#8217;t that strong.  But if that relationship of trust is broken in the meeting, then no matter how strong your project is the private money investor will not want to give you the funding.</p>
<p><strong>It&#8217;s All A Matter Of Trust</strong></p>
<p>If the investor can trust you, then just a hand shake would be good enough to make the deal, and the paperwork only backs it up.  But if you lose that trust in the meeting, no amount of paperwork can bring it back.  This is what makes JV Funding different from any other kind of funding.  And this is what makes the JV Funding Meeting so important.  It&#8217;s a time to win a friend and partner for your mutual benefit.  So prepare to meet a new friend and not just a private money investor.</p>

<p>I&#8217;m looking for clients who consider Private Money JV Funding as <em>the option</em> for funding, and not just <em>an option</em> for funding.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;re thinking that you&#8217;ll apply for Private Money JV Funding and also apply for other types of funding and see which comes in first, then do us both a favor and apply for the others and forget about Private Money JV Funding.</p>
<p>I don&#8217;t have time to deal with people who are not willing to go through the entire process to obtain their funding.  It&#8217;s a waste of your time, my time, the JV Network Company&#8217;s time, and the private money investor&#8217;s time.  None of us have that much time to waste.  The cost is too high.</p>
<p>There are too many people who are willing to go through the entire process to actually get their funds for us to waste time with those who don&#8217;t.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m looking for a few good clients who are serious, motivated, willing to go through the process, and willing to act quickly at each step along the way.  <span class="highlight">I can&#8217;t guarantee that anyone <em>will</em> get funding.</span>  I can tell you that all the money you could possibly want for your projects is available. Success or failure is really up to you.</p>
<p>If you have a strong project, you present it well, and your information is actual and accurate, then the likelihood is extremely high you&#8217;ll get your funding.  The only guarantee I can make is that if you do not take action and complete every step of the process you <em>will not</em> get your funding.</p>
<p>If you need money now, and want money now, and are willing to do what it takes to get that private money, then go to <a title="AccessToPrivateMoney Information Signup" href="http://accesstoprivatemoney.com/index.htm#frm">www.AccessToPrivateMoney.com</a> to signup and get your information to start the process.  When you review this private money information, you can determine whether this is <em>really</em> what you want to do.</p>
<p>Then, if Private Money JV Funding is <em>the option</em> to fund your project, begin NOW to get your project funded.</p>
