Don’t become one of the 50% of companies that fail. Join other focused, dedicated professionals who use ActSeed’s cost-effective resources to help avoid wrong turns, poor decisions and bad investments.”

Business planning is more than helpful. It is necessary.

Investors will listen to a good idea but will only invest if they believe you have a solid plan and are prepared to execute that plan toward a profitable return on their invested dollars.

What does 50% mean?

A very good batting average.

A very bad mortality rate.

If you are building a young business, less than 50% is approximately how many will survive at least five years, and more than 50% is how many will fail.

ActSeed exists to make sure YOU are on the right side of this statistic.

ActSeed: An "Entrepreneur-Centric Value Exchange"

3. How do I use it?

ActSeed is simple in concept and in application:

1. Register
2. Join one or more of ActSeed’s five Groups
3. Complete profiles for Groups you’ve joined
4. Review your ActSeed Scores for insight on your state of preparation and core value proposition.  Your scores indicate the completeness of your profiles, not a measure of your value
5. Anonymously search for other ActSeed members who can help you with your defined needs and goals
6. Communicate with them using your ActSeed username; reveal your real identity only when you believe there’s a fit for professional interaction
7. Constantly utilize the other professional resources: library, forum, events calendar, blog…

4. What problems does ActSeed solve?

Strategically, ActSeed addresses the 2 greatest challenges that seed stage companies face:

1. Proper planning and preparation: making sure you’re addressing all the right issues
2. Finding the right resources: labor, capital, services, mentorship, etc.

This strategic focus includes helping everyone in the “seed stage ecosystem” (see image in FAQ #2) find and engage startups and emerging companies that best fit their interests and capabilities.

Tactically, ActSeed confronts these challenges by:

1. Providing an online template that enables every member to articulate their value, identify strategic gaps and evaluate the completeness of their preparation through a proprietary scoring process and
2. Maintaining a growing, comprehensive community of seed stage resources that can efficiently search for and connect with each other based upon profile information, scores and other preferences.

5. How much does it cost?

It costs nothing to join ActSeed’s membership.

Members can join ActSeed’s Investor Group, Available to Work Group and access the Events Calendar – all without paying any fees.

If you are building a business or have a business idea, the ActSeed Entrepreneur Group gives you unlimited access to all of our planning tools and resources - including the ability to search for Investors and people in other Groups - for only $39 per month and no long term commitment.  A year’s worth Entrepreneur Group access is benchmarked to roughly one billable hour from an attorney and costs less than a registration fee for a typical entrepreneur seminar.  If $39 is unaffordable, email us at GroupAdmin.Entrepreneur@ActSeed.com; we have “charter member” programs that allow some entrepreneurs to have fees waived.

If you provide professional services or products to small businesses (e.g. legal, accounting, insurance, office supplies, etc.), the Service Provider Group enables you to profile your business and search for entrepreneurs who may need your services.  The fee for this Group is $30 per month with no long term commitment.

Six select sponsors per US region help support the costs of our operation. We don’t push advertising, nor will we ever sell or barter your profile details (see privacy policy).  Running a sustainable business ensures our ability to evolve and serve you.

6. Why should I join before the community has thousands or millions of members?

There is significant value right now with the tools that are immediately available, including profiling, scoring and other informational resources.  This value will grow as others join.  During our first few months, we will be able to provide a much more hands-on approach with each member, including the possibility of some 1-1 strategic coaching and personally connecting prepared entrepreneurs with our personal networks of investors, service providers and professional talent.

Below we share how ActSeed is committed to helping you succeed with your business.

40+ Years of Small Businesses Experience Reflected in Our Technology

Our goal is to deliver unparalleled value to seed (early) stage entrepreneurs at a fraction of what this value would cost in a conventional consulting / professional services model. ActSeed couples informational resources and a profiling/scoring system with a dynamic community application that helps entrepreneurs locate people who can help them build their business, including investors, workers, mentors/consultants and professional service providers.

The “What We Do” article is a good overview of how ActSeed works. Let’s now take a more focused look at the specific value we deliver to entrepreneurs and their companies.

Dual, Integrated Value Propositions for the Entrepreneur

Value Proposition #1: Preparatory Framework and Business Profiling

The first value proposition for entrepreneurs is providing a framework for business planning and preparation. This is not a canned solution or a “business-in-a-box” service. Our goal is to help guide both novice and seasoned entrepreneurs through a structured and systematically scored business planning and preparation process.

Investor Prep. ActSeed’s Entrepreneur Group is designed to help you understand what most investors expect, then help prepare and position your company to attract seed investment. Almost every seed stage entrepreneur includes raising capital as a high priority. About 2% of all startup companies secure funding; 98% of all companies fail to secure investor funds. We want to dramatically improve this success rate.

ActSeed’s founders have a combined 40+ years of early stage business experience. We have founded venture-backed, corporate-backed and fully-bootstrapped startups. ActSeed reflects lessons learned from pitching to over 60 venture capital firms and angels as well as preparing detailed financial projections and business plans/presentations for over 30 companies across many different industries.

Investor Access.  ActSeed is a new community. The value to Entrepreneurs will grow as more and more investors join. As we build our Investor Group membership during our first few months, we will help our “charter member” Entrepreneurs identify prospective investors through our own professional networks and by highlighting our Entrepreneur Group companies in our Investor seminars, workshops and other recruiting activities. In other words, early adopters will receive a much more hands-on approach to helping with their capital raising efforts.

Preparing and Profiling Your Company.  ActSeed helps you address the question, “Am I prepared?” ActSeed segments preparatory activity into two profile templates. The first template is called the “Company Public Profile” and is viewable by the ActSeed community. The second template is called “Company Private Profile” and is only available to those who the entrepreneur explicitly grants viewing permission. Profile templates can be printed for offline review.

Entrepreneur Company Scores. ActSeed generates a numeric score between 0-100 for each preparatory topic (see “Framework” image). These scores help identify where your business needs attention and can be used by others, including investors, as a benchmark to qualify deal interest.

Entrepreneur-Exclusive Resources.  Members of the Entrepreneur Group have exclusive access to (1) a digital library of content and links and (2) a forum for peer collaboration.

Value Proposition #2: Dynamic Community of People with Capital, Labor, Services

The second value proposition for entrepreneurs is the community portion of our application we refer to as the “entrepreneur-centric value exchange”.

Entrepreneur Centric.  As an Entrepreneur Group member, you can search for and engage people in all other core groups and all other groups can search for your company. ActSeed places the entrepreneur in control at the center of the community.

Advanced Search.  To find and interact with others in the ActSeed community, we provide an advanced search screen that allows you to use a comprehensive set of search parameters. You can have results sent to your email inbox on a daily or weekly basis. Imagine having a service that addresses, “I am looking for an investor within a __ radius of my location who is looking to invest in a __ stage company within the __ industry and is looking to invest $__ into a deal within the next __ days.”

Messaging & Member Interaction. When you identify prospects, you can send them messages within the system without revealing your actual identity until you are ready. Recipients of your message can view your public profile and reply back to you. If you both decide to escalate talks, you can then share identifying information (phone/email).

Professional Contact Designation. You can designate other members as ActSeed Professional Contacts, which enables them to review your company’s private profile information. This is similar to the social media action commonly called “friending”. It’s not designed to help you accumulate thousands of connections, but enable you to selectively share private profile data to help move a possible deal toward successful closure. Professional Contacts are meant to be constantly activated and terminated, not accumulated.

Membership Details

If you are building a business or have a business idea, the ActSeed Entrepreneur Group gives you unlimited access to all of our planning tools and resources – including the ability to search for Investors and people in other Groups – for only $39 per month and no long term commitment. Payment information is completely handled within PayPal’s secure transaction system.

One Year = One Hour.  A year’s worth Entrepreneur Group access is benchmarked to roughly one hour from an attorney and costs less than a registration fee for a typical entrepreneur seminar. We do not intend to displace startup consultants or attorneys, but ActSeed’s resources may help you avoid thousands of dollars of startup planning costs that can otherwise be applied to areas your ActSeed profile identifies as needing attention.

If $39 is unaffordable, email us at GroupAdmin.Entrepreneur@ActSeed.com; we have “charter member” programs that allow some entrepreneurs to have fees waived.

Conclusion

The essence of entrepreneurship is identifying and filling a need that has sufficient demand to establish a sustainable business. Beyond this concept is an enormously complex and challenging path that derails many great ideas for lack of proper planning and execution. ActSeed wasn’t designed to be a networking alternative to LinkedIn or similar sites. We are big supporters of other professional networking sites, but we provide a different value proposition to the Entrepreneur: organizing critical resources and processes that a seed/early stage company needs to survive and thrive, which means helping you connect with the few people who really matter at the moment, not connecting you to thousands to may matter one day in the future.

If the value we can provide to you and your burgeoning company is still not evident, please send us an email to GroupAdmin.Entrepreneur@ActSeed.com and let us know how we can earn your business.

……………………………………………..

• Find well-prepared seed stage investment opportunities.
• 15 minutes to set up your ActSeed membership.
• No fees.
• Spam controlled.
• Register here.
• No reason not to. You are a valuable part of new business creation and this community needs you.

People, plan, execution and intensity. Good ideas and large addressable markets alone don’t get funded. Those of us with capital don’t invest or lend or grant until we know if the idea has the right combination of talent and preparation. ActSeed helps you quickly sift through deal flow in an efficient, methodical manner and even track entire industry segments of emerging business activity.

What types of “capital providers” should join ActSeed?

• Angels, angel groups, accredited investors
• Non-accredited investors, too
• Seed stage VC firms
• Later stage VCs tracking early stage deal activity
• Small business / commercial lending banks
• Venture leasing firms
• Corporate investment / M&A departments looking for early stage strategic investments or acquisitions

What kind of seed-stage company does ActSeed recruit?

• All industries (not just high-tech/biotech)
• Focusing on US companies, but we’re beneficial and available to startups worldwide
• Growth stages segmented as follows:

1. Conception (“I have an idea.”)
2. Development (“We’re getting ready for market.”)
3. Birth (“We’re entering the market.”)
4. Infancy (“We’re focused on achieving profitability.”)
5. Growth (“We’re profitable and focused on market share.”)

Do I have to be actively seeking investment opportunities?

No. Even if you are currently “on the sidelines”, being part of ActSeed now gives you a chance to monitor entrepreneurial activity and trending. With one quick edit to profile Question #9 (“looking to invest within…”), you can change your investment appetite from “Beyond 90 days” to “Immediately”.

Do I have to pay anything?

No. Beyond connecting needs and resources, we stay completely out of deals. No cash or equity or other form of success fee.  Investor Group membership is free.  Entrepreneurs pay a small monthly fee for access to the tools and resources we have developed to help them prepare their company for investment, market entry and sustainable corporate discipline – enough we believe to build and maintain this community without need for subsidy.

As an investor, I see lots of inbound, unsolicited deal flow that doesn’t intersect with my investment priorities or needs some preparatory work before they are ready to pursue funding. Can I refer these entrepreneurs to you?

Absolutely. Going through ActSeed’s “Preparatory Framework” will help them identify gaps and articulate value. You can keep an eye on them and their ActSeed scores; maybe they become a viable investment in the future. As you know, entrepreneurs appreciate when a “pass” or “no” is followed by a constructive referral, and ActSeed’s mission is to prep more deals to be “funding-worthy”.

How does ActSeed prevent me from getting spammed with unsolicited communication from those who might attempt to misuse the system?

ActSeed is designed to keep your investor identity completely anonymous. Your Investor profile only outlines your investor preferences (industry, typical funding amount, company stage, etc.) and what kind of investor you are (angel, accredited, VC, etc.) unless you decide to share specifics.

Entrepreneurs search for you based upon general profile criteria and can send you messages only within ActSeed (you can choose to have a copy pushed to your email if you want). If you like the profile of a given company, you can ask the entrepreneur to share more info. You are in complete control of whether you share your actual information (name, email, phone, etc).  ActSeed doesn’t allow users to randomly browse other users, thereby mitigating screen-scraping your info and sending you an unsolicited message.  There is no mass-messaging.  Search results are limited (results per screen and total returned) to prevent generic searching and encourage users to adhere to the intent of ActSeed: for members to find “the few who matter”, not “the masses who may matter one day.”

To terminate contact with any user, simply use the “Block User” link next to the user’s profile image and they won’t be able to see your profile or send you further messages. If you believe a user is overly abusive of ActSeed’s community, please report the user to us using our “Report Abuse” link that’s available at the bottom of every screen.

Our goal is to offer to Investors discretion without compromising accessibility, and hopefully our FAQ answer here gives you comfort that we will meet this goal.

Specifically how does ActSeed help me find deals?

A search screen with advanced search features as further described below.

What search parameters are included in your search tool?

• Location (mileage radius from your location zip, by state, nationally and internationally)
• Business stages
• Specialty designations (green, minority owned, woman owned, veteran owned, etc.)
• Industry sectors (25 choices)
• Amount of funding sought
• ActSeed Entrepreneur Scores
• Other parameters like “business plan complete”, “financial plan complete”, etc.)

Can I save my search parameters so I don’t have to create the search every time?

Yes. You can create up to five saved searches.

Can I get results pushed to my email inbox?

Yes. Daily or weekly.

Is ActSeed easy to use? How much time to set up?

1. Register and add basic info: <3 minutes.

……………………………………

First, welcome to ActSeed!  By reading this, you’re already participating in an innovative “community of common interest” that is dedicated to helping prepare great business ideas and connect the founders of those ideas with other people who will be necessary to turn the great idea into a successful business through preparation, execution and intensity.  This part of ActSeed will always be open to everyone to read and contribute.  This is ActSeed’s “SIZZLE”. 

We hear all kinds of idioms related to steak and sizzle, such as “Sell the sizzle, not the steak.” and “You can’t sell the steak without the sizzle”.  From my understanding, we can thank the late sales guru and pioneer of persuasion from the mid 20th Century, Elmer Wheeler, for the original phrase.  Simply put, the sizzle is the communication of the value proposition (sales & marketing) and the steak is the desired business value.

ActSeed’s sizzle isn’t a means to an end with a sole intent of getting you to join the coming business community.  Our sizzle should stand independently as a valuable resource.  We want every word and every recommendation on our home page to have value and meaning to you.

The Steak is coming.

To keep true to the sizzle-steak metaphor, if you like the aroma coming from our kitchen, just wait until dinner is served!  [For our vegetarian readers, we did our homework, and there is such a thing as a tofu steak.  Recipes here: http://bit.ly/3eUuBy See? We were thinking of you too when using a steak metaphor!].

Behind our online magazine content, a new “marketplace for the idea economy” is about to be launched.  You can join the Community for free.  Within the Community, we have five primary groups that have specific needs to address and resources to offer:

• Entrepreneurs – business owners who are building and growing a business
• Investors – people and institutions looking to put their cash to work by funding small, growing businesses
• Work seekers – people who are available to work and want to work with or for a small business.  This includes people who want to spend a few hours a week advising a company that needs their core expertise and wisdom.  This includes people looking for full time jobs and those looking to pick up additional hours (part time).  This includes freelancers and contractors.  This includes, essentially, all of us.
• Education and Outreach Programs – public and private organizations that are focused on facilitating and mentoring small businesses.  Groups that carry a mission of new business creation and job creation.  Universities, community colleges, SBA, chambers of commerce, economic development organizations, private incubators and even news organizations - they’re all included here.
• Service Providers – for-profit firms that provide needed services to small business, such as accounting, legal, management consulting, marketing, etc.

Some of the groups within the community are free and some have a membership.  All have a very specific value to you depending upon your current professional situation and near term business goals.  You’ll quickly figure out how to navigate through this community.  It’s based upon contemporary social media / social network functionality.  If you understand Facebook and LinkedIn, then you’ll easily follow.  If you only understand web browsing and email, you’ll still figure out how to use our community with ease.  Oh, and you can join more than one or ALL groups at once.  Most of us hold more than one of these roles already, such as an entrepreneur starting a new business while looking for another 20 hours of work to supplement his/her income, or an investor looking for a company needing working capital and simultaneously looking for advisory roles.

Unlike most of the popular social media sites, ActSeed isn’t another venue to amass as many contacts as you can.  We’re not another potential steady stream of information that you have to worry about digesting.   Instead, ActSeed has a premise that you need to interact with the people who matter to you NOW as quickly and efficiently as possible, and those people may not be in your “six degrees of separation” network, but if you have defined your needs well, and everyone else in the community defines their skills and availability well, then you’ll be doing business much faster.  And if you’re reading this, you likely already know from experience how a small business person has little margin for error in getting to the right people and remaining as prepared as possible.  You also know that your needs are constantly changing, so it’s easy to appreciate that someone you might want to engage today is engaged by someone else tomorrow – thus they may be a good fit for your needs, but no longer available. 

Whether you’re talking about an investor who has a pocket full of cash today and finds an entrepreneur tomorrow or an advisor with expertise and wisdom who’s available today but starts helping someone besides you tomorrow, a big part of small business building is timing.  You want to be that person who finds the investor, service provider, mentor or worker when they matter to you and when they are available to you.  Most social networks are designed for you to spend an unlimited amount of time achieving a never ending goal of expanding your network.  ActSeed is designed for you to spend as little time as possible to engage only those who matter to you at any given moment.

We break ActSeed’s Community Application (our “Steak”) into two value propositions:

Value Proposition #1 = “Framework”: Structured Business Planning & Preparation

ActSeed has a self-profiling process that helps you focus on your preparatory progress in seven key areas.  We don’t try to evaluate the efficacy of your idea or business plan or your professional skills or capital resources.  We’ll make sure to include individuals, companies and outreach / mentoring programs that do that very well.  We will help you score your “completeness of preparation” with an introspective look at what issues you’re confronting and which you have yet to confront.  We’ll even give you a scoring report so you can track progress as your business evolves.  We’ll also use this scoring methodology to help you “reach those who matter” in our community, which we’ll describe in our second value proposition for you, but first we recap our first value proposition: 

• Immediate value delivered to each member, even before interacting with other members, through a comprehensive media library for entrepreneurs and a thorough profile process for everyone
• Methodical format for disciplined business planning, preparation and presentation
• Easy-to-use self-profiling tool; inputs converge on a valuable introspection: “Are you prepared?”
• Unique scoring of the entrepreneur’s completeness of preparation

Value Proposition #2 = “Dynamic Community”: Social Media Applied to Structured Business Interaction, Not Unstructured Networking

Preparation needs an outlet, right?  All dressed up and no place to go doesn’t cut it.  And if you’ve invested some preparatory time before stepping out, you expect others to do the same.  ActSeed’s business “community of common interest” is designed to bring us all together to efficiently do business.  ActSeed is designed to help you find others who matter to you at the moment when you need them and when they are available.  ActSeed protects your privacy until you choose to reveal more information.  A summary of the value we deliver within our second value proposition includes:

• Provide entrepreneur-centric environment for interaction among key resources
• Private messaging & workspace for collaboration & negotiation
• Advanced search / matching capabilities that include profile scoring on each role
• Build valuable knowledge base of user activity & community behavior

ActSeed’s forthcoming application sits at one of the most innovative intersections of social media and business.  Our home page will continue to drive content that reflects leading thinking on new business creation from within and beyond the ActSeed team, but in a few short weeks, ActSeed will offer much more.

Business applications of social media aren’t new.  LinkedIn is a shining example of how professionals are leveraging a social media model to expand and enrich their networks.  Never has a professional “six degrees of separation” been as handy.  Our first meetings can be much more productive when we know a bit about the person we’re meeting. We are avid users of social media, from Facebook to LinkedIn to Twitter and beyond and we definitely appreciate the value these venues provide.

ActSeed is establishing a new intersection of social media and business where online community behavior is focused on new business creation, small businesses and the core processes around building durable and successful companies.  Instead of giving you another platform to network almost endlessly among 50 million or 300 million others, we are building an application that gives you an opportunity to find the few key individuals who matter to you right now to help you with the critical needs that need your attention.

For a couple of decades now, we’ve been living the life of The Entrepreneur.  We intimately and personally understand the world of business creation at the most nascent stages.  We all have lots of needs.  We’re always short on time and have limited resources at our disposal.  We understand the high level of chaos.  Actually, we thrive on most of the chaos; it’s a large part of what makes us entrepreneurs.  We are very aware of the almost endless number of networks, clubs, lists, newsletters, books, directories and other forms of assistance designed to help us be successful, but we sometimes wonder if the saturation and noise doesn’t bog us down instead of fueling us forward. 

Thus, on the top of our wish list is to find a way to condense these possibities into a “dashboard of opportunity” – a tool that allows us to prepare our companies within a methodical preparatory framework and identify / engage the folks who matter to what we need right now, whether that’s investor capital, advisory wisdom, inexpensive and youthful labor, mentoring or some sort of professional services.

We couldn’t find the “dashboard” that we wanted, so we’re building it.  Stay tuned.  It’s almost “curtain time”, and we hope you’ll allow us to be part of your command performance.

Hunting an investor?  A new market for your product?  A new VP of Sales or an advisor with a career’s worth of expertise in marketing consumer software? 

We all know the proper sequence is “ready, aim, shoot”, but do we follow this simple mantra when targeting the milestones that keep our business on a trajectory of success?  Or do we follow a related expression, “shooting from the hip”?

First, we focus on “READY”.

ActSeed is about to launch a preparatory framework that helps you view your business from a number of important angles.  This is a very streamlined profiling process.  An introspection.  You’re already busy, so it’s designed to take minimal time for maximum effect.  Think of it as a “good look in the mirror” for your business, not some overly analytical “Myers-Briggs psychometric questionnaire” equivalent.  ActSeed’s introspective business profiling process makes sense to the first time entrepreneur and seasoned, serial entrepreneur alike.  We don’t try to give you all of the answers (a “silver bullet”), but through the process, we can help you score your preparedness so you can shore up any deficiencies and address any needs.

If you’re looking at ActSeed from the viewpoint of an investor, service provider, public interest program or someone looking for work, our simple profiling process is a powerful way to outline your interests and capacities so you can find the businesses that matter to you.  Your profile helps avoid being contacted by entrepreneurs who don’t have what you’re looking for.  ActSeed reduces unwanted noise and distraction that’s so prevalent in most of the communities we join.

Next, we focus on “AIM”.

The coming social community within ActSeed gives you resources at which to aim.  We’re actively recruiting mentors, investors, entrepreneurs, service providers, economic development programs, educational institutions and others who may be an excellent addition to your growing team.  You’re someone else’s ideal target, too.  We all want to hunt and be hunted by the people who matter to us and no one else.  ActSeed helps refine your aim and reduce the time and expense you otherwise have to invest to find ideal targets.  This is a no-brainer service, and we’re much better prepared to aim because we focused on being ready.

Finally, we “SHOOT”.

ActSeed’s coming interaction system allows you to shoot inquiries to those who fit your needs.  No scatter shots and mass messaging.  Unlike most conventional social media communities, your profile isn’t made available for random browsing and spam artists.  Your searches against others’ profiles quickly get you to a meaningful short list of people to engage in serious discussion on a one-to-one basis.  No general broadcasting allowed.  Once you are comfortable with the username on the other end of a messaging inquiry within ActSeed, we encourage you to circumvent the ActSeed platform, trade emails or phone numbers and hopefully shake hands in person and conclude a mutually beneficial deal.

Within this context, ActSeed is here to help you get ready faster, aim more precisely and hit your targets more efficiently.  Remember, we don’t eat unless the hunt is successful.
