Actually I was referring to the capital seeker not the supplier. By Capital Ready, I mean do you have everything in place so that when the capital source "show up" - there will be no delays or stoppages and you can progress "smoothly" to a positive conclusion.

Last week, I attended a presentation  (I was invited by one of the investors) by a startup to some possible investors.Their presentation was pretty good and things seem to be flowing along - when someone asked the question "Are you all prepared to quit your day jobs and commit to this project totally - once the funds are in place"?  It was patently obvious that 2 of the the team were not prepared to do so and avoided answering the question.  Deal killer.

Go Big is huge fruad,they do not know how to establish business credit. I had a account opened with them and they did nothing but ruin my companies name. I am not haivng so many problems trying to fix what they have messed up.Do not trust them with your information!! After a couple months with opening my account ,I did my research and all they tell you is lies. They do not tell you the correct information at all, and they have no idea what they are doing.They kept telling me to have patience but all along they screwed up my account. They will try to sign you up for a premier builder package but the sales person just tells you so much bs. The sales person Mark Moore ,after he got a sale from us he would not return phone calls. After 9 months having an account opened with them I made no progress ,so they were going to start me back to begining. I have to close my bank account because I do not trust this company at all,I was scared they might try to take out of my account after cancelling. If you want to build your business credit ,please do not trust them. All they will do is waste your money and time.Honestly after going through this company I know more about establishing business credit then them.Do not even waste you time or money of their 149 monthly maintenance because the concierage Wendy Lieb is full of crap. She is suppoesed to keep up with your account but so will not , she has no idea what she is doing. DO NOT TRUST THIS COMPANY!!!!!!!!!!!

Corinne,  Absolutely don't put up the $150.  They claim that they check out the investors profiles and make sure they are real.  I found a couple of investors that I thought would ideal for my business.  Wanted to do my own research and tried finding more information about the investor and their business ( if they had one) and except for a few, most of them don't seem to exist.  I pointed that out to one of their support people who answered my call and they were going to check that out and that was 2 days ago.  Still waiting to hear back.

I am a Credit Analyst for an Asset Based Lending company, and I think that GoBig is a great website for people looking for funding. Whether it be start up, seed, small business loans, or existing companies looking for capital, it works very well.

My morning consists of trying to find people to contact on the site, and it seems to work very well.

Sure it may seem like a lot of money, but put it in the context of getting your business off of the ground.
