Join me in conversation with Michael Movitz of The Movitz Group & Brandjectory as we talk about the ins and outs of connecting with investors and raising money for your packaged food or beverage business.

In today’s show we cover:

• What you need to put in place before you raise capital

• Different types of lending & investment options for different stage brands

• What an investor looks for as they assess brands, products and Founders

• How to find investors for your food or beverage business

• The challenges that Founders face while raising capital, and how Brandjectory helps you overcome them 

On today’s show, Michael also mentioned SBA Loans, Kiva, Grameen America and Accion USA as places to look for micro loans and alternative financing.
