Venture Capital Consulting Launches to Provide Preparation and Consultation Services for Technology Companies Seeking Angel Investment











SANTA MONICA, CA (PRWEB) December 4, 2006

Not knowing how to package and market ideas to the venture capital community can slow growth and the execution of strategic initiatives. A new company, Venture Capital Consulting (VCC), has been created to assist entrepreneurs in the technology industry with securing funds for start-up businesses.

Todd Shoemack, president and CEO of Venture Capital Consulting, said, “I decided to begin offering this service because a lot of entrepreneurs have great ideas and good companies but are not familiar with the needs and complexities of attaining venture capital. The quest for venture capital funding is very complex and VCC can be a tremendous asset in assisting companies to attain those funds.”

Venture Capital Consulting begins by assessing the needs of its clients. Once VCC has conducted a comprehensive analysis, the company develops an action plan for the customer. VCC assists in strategy building, image and content creation and the development of presentation skills. Once the client is ready, Mr. Shoemack acts as a marketing and sales director to venture capital financing sources.

“At Venture Capital Consulting we will assist you in packaging your business technology or industry innovation into a coherent, strategic, focused and professional presentation to the venture capital, angel investor and small business financing community,” Shoemack said.
