Network, LLC If you are a company trying to raise capital, I would avoid using I.R.A. Network, LLC. Their internet addy is businessplanfunding.com. They charge 25-30k in upfront fees and guarantee no results. I went through their process. They go through the typical sales pitches that brokers do, talking up your company, then having you sign a contract that gurantees you no results. They advertise possessing a huge network of thousands of investors that they will send your business plan and PPM for possible investment. Well, supposedly, thet sent my company's info to nearly a thousand potential investors with no response, AT ALL. I can understand that maybe noone wanted to invest, but come on, not one even was interested in knowing more about my company. They fed me a bunch of B.S. In my own effeorts for seeking funding, by simply emailing individual investors, I had personally found on the internet, I got a bunch of investors, at least, inquiring more information about my company. So, the fact that I.R.A. advertises their huge network of investors, might be a scam. It is also unique that through the process, they tell you not to contact anyone on their list. Their selling practices are manipulative, and the BBB report on them states numerous complaints. Lastly, I have found that any company that says they can help you, really might help you if they charge you after you see results. NEVER PAY UPFRONT FEES! If a company or person like I.R.A. Network, LLC were dependable, they would provide results before charging fees.
