Anyone ever used raisecapital.com
 
I have a few mainstream projects that could use some funding and came across http://www.raisecapital.com. Anyone ever use it or is it just a waste of the $99 membership fee? Projects are legit and I have had a few VC cold calls but when they called 6 months ago there was no corporate structure in place as I was just setting things up.

Dating game is going very well but being diverse is always a good option.

Never will. I have been working on these other sites for 6+ months along with everything else. Workload is not a problem.

I am sure there are and I have received cold calls from a couple of VC companies that got my number from whois about one of the projects before but that was when there was no corporate structure. I've also received a few offers to buy this same site as well as a partnership deal that would have given me equity in another company. Obviously, I am not the only one that thinks this idea has some legs but to really get everything done how I would like it a cash influx would be needed.
