cowdery Posted December 9, 2010 Share Posted December 9, 2010 Repeatedly say on the site that you are going to make "moonshine." What is "moonshine?" (It's a serious question.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tirador Posted December 9, 2010 Share Posted December 9, 2010 Congratulations ... just make sure you've got a solid plan on how to use it, and spend it wisely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Tomaszewski Posted December 9, 2010 Share Posted December 9, 2010 So many people have been posting lately about how to gain investment in their plans; could you give us some insight into what was key to gaining that type of financial investment in your business? What specific strengths do you think were worthwhile in gaining their support and backing? Just out of curiousity, how many people did it take to get to the 1 million dollar mark? (if you don't mind sharing that with the forum). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beauport Bob Posted December 10, 2010 Share Posted December 10, 2010 Christian, congrats. But a question from me. In relationship to that ear of corn, where did you get such a small mule? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cowdery Posted December 11, 2010 Share Posted December 11, 2010 Read the article, folks. There is less there than meets the eye. They 'secured' an investment from the wealthy guys who are starting the thing. When you reach into your own pocket and pull out your money, I suppose you have 'secured' an investment, but it's a little misleading as reported here. But congratulations on having a million dollars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christian Posted December 17, 2010 Author Share Posted December 17, 2010 Sorry for the delayed reply here. Thanks for the congrats. Cowdery is correct that the team behind this self-financed the first level of investment. That probably answers Dick and Paul's question as well, but I don't want to minimize the level of confidence we had to reach in our plan to get that commitment. It came to a point in planning when it was clear we didn't have to sell what we want to do because whatever we plugged into the plan did the selling. We still have a lot of work to do and are working and meeting with a lot of talented and respected folks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
