Crowdfunding For Women And Similar Opportunities

By Alta Alexander


Crowdfunding is a rather new concept. Crowdfunding for women is one way to raise money for a number of different type projects. As such, each and every woman whomever wanted to become an entrepreneur may want to check out these new opportunities. While there are multiple websites associated with the process directed only at supporting women based start-ups, some are better than others.

Unless all individuals associated with a campaign understand the process, success may be quite limited. Generally, individuals can post a plan to establish a product or service which needs financial support. Once posted, others interested in supporting the project then donate an unspecified amount of money through a secure networked website.

One of these websites is that of Pine Alley. It is also one of the best and most used of these women oriented sites. Although, there are others which offer the same opportunities, this particular site has already seen great success with campaigns which have come to fruition in a short amount of time.

While these women oriented sites only accept projects posted and managed by women, men and women alike can provide funding, at least on the majority of sites. While men are welcome to participate, most often it is women supporting women which create the most successful outcome.

Most women oriented funding sites create an easy path to setting up a campaign. In fact, most provide step-by-step instructions on set-up through completion. Whereas, some even provide business consultants which can provide ideas and services either free or for a nominal fee. The best of which provide this opportunity of counseling on an ongoing basis when it comes to questions or issues which may arise over the course of the campaign.

As these sites also benefit financially, most are happy to share information. A number offer tips and tricks on how to raise money by using the best tools available. These tools generally assist in set-up, management and completion. One important aspect of any campaign or project is that the individual have a great deal of knowledge related to the product or service to be funded.

Otherwise, the campaign or project while possibly obtaining funding may hit a roadblock. If this happens, then most often all monies obtained up to that point and time must be returned to each provider. Although, while most sites require this to be the case, there are a few which will allow the monies to stay in escrow while the individual obtains the necessary knowledge to complete a project.

While this type funding is now quite popular with those whom work online, others without online access still have other options. Some of these include applying to shows like Shark Tank, talking with a Small Business Bureau representative or borrowing money from a private investor. Of course, the better presentation, credit and reputation one has upon requesting this type funding, the more likely one will be to obtain the monies needed for the development of a product or service oriented business.
