This should come as a surprise to the good people at Growthink.
I owe my recent interest in crowdfunding (and angel investing, venture capital, and business planning) to Growthink. They graciously offered me the chance to assist them with my writing services. In so doing, they gave me an introduction to the interesting world of seed and early-stage business management.
Therefore I felt it only fair to give them a shout-out here. Growthink is a business plan consultancy, middle market investment bank, and feasibility study service. Since 1999 they have helped over 2,000 businesses raise $1 billion in capital.
Their management team is Ivy-educated and they definitely know their stuff. You can take my word for it. I did some background research on them (all in the game, guys, all in the game) and determined their reputation to be damn solid.
