Now that I've got your attention, I am, of course, not looking for that insane amount Instead, I'd like to know who would be interested in supporting, sponsoring, or investing in some of my projects, as I am searching for early-stage funding partners and experienced mentors. I'd also appreciate feedback from those who have gone through the process of securing funding and support. Over the years, and more recently, I've built several "tools". Here are two projects I've put out there: https://namfreetaxcalc.vercel.app https://namscamcheck.vercel.app I plan to release more tools for Namibian users while also expanding into the international market. Many of the tools and platforms I've built are things I use myself. I've decided to package them and send them off into the world. Others are bigger projects that solve real problems people face in Namibia. A few are more complex ideas and systems with greater potential, but they need further validation, especially from a financial and legal perspective. The business models behind all of these projects have potential for growth and profitability. So, not everything is just a basic website like the ones above. Future projects are opportunities with potential, not guaranteed profits What I need: Funding for hosting, domains, tools, marketing, registrations, legal and financial advice, monthly subscriptions, and other related costs. This could be funding for individual projects as they are released or for specific milestones along the way. What you get in return: a.) Receive 20-30% of the net profits generated by the specific projects you fund for 6-12 months or until you recover your initial investment/support, whichever comes first b.) Receive your initial investment back, plus an additional 20-30% return, paid back as the business generates sufficient income. c.) Receive an agreed percentage of ownership in the specific business or project you invest in, entitling you to your share of future profits and, potentially, a return from a sale For projects that do not become their own businesses, ownership and profit-sharing terms will be set up individually I'm also looking into investors and sponsors from outside Namibia, but it's always nice to keep things "in house" before looking elsewhere. If you are an investor, sponsor, or supporter, I'd like to hear from you. If you have worked with investors and have been through this process yourself, I'd also like to hear from you. Even advice, constructive feedback, or pointing me in the right direction would help   submitted by   /u/dymitr061 [link]   [comments]
