Anyone know any good books on how to raise capital for a Syndication?

We have some great investment opportunities for investors, but my biggest bottleneck right now is getting the word out there. So I'm trying to learn as much as I can about streamlining the process. Does anyone have any book recommendations for raising syndication capital from accredited investors?

No book will teach you how to raise money. It’s all about being in sales and selling your products again that’s not a book (even though lots of books on sales).

It’s like anything- what makes a good sale?

1. A quality product

2. A quality company behind that product

In today’s real estate don’t believe what you read on online, funds are struggling mightily to raise $. First $1-$2M can be done but $5M+ you have to have rockstar team and product

Wait, are we allowed to post our deals on her to raise funds? I had just figured the goal was to keep it educational.

Be very careful about posting a solicitation for a security anywhere publicly.

In the classified, also on OTHER social media sites. Just go to the local groups, If its good you will get interest. ALL IN price, and NET income, thats what will or will not get attention.

I THINK he has a property he needs money for. But 100% very " scary" to raise money for projects. Better have a GREAT SEC attorney

Yes, we already have a property, SEC docs are all in order, and we have already made some headway in the fundraising. I'm really looking for ways to speed up the fundraising and find more investors. We have another really great opportunity for an investment but I don't like the idea of starting another fundraise before this one is done.
