Is Your Business Fundable Or Is It Viable – There’s A Difference

Ok.  I’m going to offer a mini-series today on raising money for your business.  I’m not going to do it alone. I’m going to call on some experts to come into the room and help explain this.  I understand some of this may be a bit esoteric if you’re not out there trying to raise money from venture capitalists.  But I think it is extremely helpful anyway, because anyone who goes into business will need to raise money and keep raising it for a good while until you pass that magic threshold when the business is self sustaining.  So, here’s Guy Kawasaki ( and if you’re short on time, I suggest you at least watch the first video where Guy sums up 5 main points.)
