The art of raising Capital???

[Jaison Emmanuel]

Hello all, 

I'm trying to better market myself to raise capital.  Next month I have an investor(s) luncheon to talk about my business and raising capital.   But I am not a sales guy.  I would like to know some techniques that people use to successfully raise capital.  So far, for me, it's just showing the numbers.   

But I would like to have other techniques/methodology or approach when it come to raising capital. 

Let me know

I don't think you need to be a sales guy to do this. I speak from experience as I am a not a good sales guy. 

What will be important to them is your track record of success, how they will make money investing with you, and most importantly why investing with you is safe and won't lose them money. I'm sorry if this isn't specific enough, but remember you're raising money from people and everyone is different. I'm not a believer in cookie cutter scripts.
