Investors want to see an innovative product with some traction in an intriguing market. If you’ve simply got a good idea, you’d better have a great track record and excellent salesmanship (the latter can trump all else). If you can’t convince friends, family, and fools to invest you’re going to have a tough time with angels and you’re certainly not getting in the room with VC’s. There are a few places – Y Combinator, TechStars – who will look at applications from anybody doing anything, but again, you’d better have traction, a track record, and/or a compelling product. And they’ll typically invest $20K or less with heavy strings attached. The best option I’ve found for seed capital with no strings attached is The XBanker.

sorry to hear that carlos, but your story is all too common, both with Genesis and throughout the industry. Let’s see if we can do something about changing things.

I was reading the blog and notices that you were talking about Genesis Exchange, My company has also paid this company to help my company get funding. After paying 25K to this company we did a video and was told that we have a conference call everyweek. But after the first call we never talked to Genesis again. Its go to the point that we have all there numbers and they still do not call us back.
