Startup Funding When Markets Crash [Video]

Tech stocks are down, Netflix is down 70%, and Shopify is down 80%. Most other listed tech stocks are way down. Most startups are not listed, but the market crash has a major impact on fundraising right now. Today we’re going to look at how to fundraise while the stock markets are crashing! Finally, in the video, we make a list of takeaways on what you should do and not do in this funding environment. What is happening and what can we do about it. We look at how you need to be adaptable and very flexible when it comes to offers from investors, you may have to take offers that you don’t like much. You should focus on mid- to long-term and less on the short-term. In this new world rapid growth isn’t appreciated, so sacrifice growth for profitability. If you have a high burn, cut cost, you will be stronger with a lower cost base.

A little bit goes a long way [Video]

Hello my name is Boon Johnson and I am fundraising to help elevate the living conditions of some beautiful orphan children that live in a community in Uganda.We all know there are a lot of people in need of help around the world, including here in our own cities. Lots of homeless people right at our footsteps.I thank God for protecting my family, and helping my wife and I provide for our children.We never miss a meal, we always have a place to lay our heads, clothes on our backs, shoes on our feet, running water and so much more!I’ve always wondered what can be done, and how to help people in need around the world. After consulting with God, he put it on my heart to specifically help this community in the Kampala District, Central region of Uganda. There are 32 orphan children living in this community.I’ve been in contact with the group of people caring for these little ones, and they’ve shared their mission with me.The $15,000 will allow them to purchase the land they are currently renting. Then they will be able to build a house for homeless, distressed orphans children with HIV/AIDS, and provide immediate needs for them. There will be farming on the land to help feed the children and generate financial income for the community.They will continue to nurture sick and malnourished orphan children for better health, and keep them well and strong through child survival programs. Children in general constitute a large percentage of the population in Uganda.One of the mission statements is that children should grow up in a family environment and in an atmosphere of happiness, love, guidance and understanding! I whole heartedly agree with this.I’m praying and hoping you will join me in this opportunity to help someone else. I am grateful for what ever you decide to give, and they will be too!I’ve started a gofundme page, when you get a little time, stop by- https://gofund.me/d5f914e4Thank you in advance,Boon
