      Investors - How It Works
 	
The New York Investment Network is designed to help business investors find the 
best investment opportunities in New York. The New York Investment Network belongs 
to an integrated network of Dealflow sites serving 9 of the largest US states 
so can offer you access to a steady flow of targeted business proposals from 
the best US markets. We will email you business summaries that match your 
investment criteria or you can search for opportunities within our database. Our 
opportunities range from seed capital for leading edge start-ups to growth capital 
for profitable mature businesses. 
 
Our process is as follows:

Step 1: Register as an Investor
The first step is to register. It is free and takes just a minute. Select your own investment 
criteria so that you only receive proposals that would be of interest to you. You will be 
sent an email to confirm you email address. Your membership will then need to be 
approved by our staff before you can log in. You will be notified via email once your 
account has been activated.

Step 2: Notification
Once registered you will receive proposals via email that match your investment criteria. 
The proposals contain answers to specific questions that investors need to know in order 
to understand important aspects of the business and decide if you should contact the entrepreneur 
to learn more.   We do not send out full business plans, however, entrepreneurs can upload
them as attachments to their proposal which can be reviewed online.

     Step 3: Review Opportunities
     
You can log in and review investment opportunities in the system as often as you like 
and even look at ones that are outside your investment criteria.  We offer tools that allow 
you to actively manage your list of investment opportunities by adding, deleting, and saving 
opportunities.

   Step 4: Make Contact
Once you find a proposal of interest, you can send a contact request to 
the entrepreneur by logging in and clicking a contact button on their proposal.
This notifies the entrepreneur of your interest in their proposal and adds them 
to your list of contacts.  In your list of contacts, there are Fees Paid 
and Awaiting Response icons to let you know which entrepreneurs have 
paid our investor referral  fee. Those with Fees Paid will receive your 
contact details immediately. Those with Awaiting Response are still 
waiting for enough interest to be generated before paying the fee.  Please be 
aware that we are an match-making service only.  We receive no commissions 
and do not become involved in any due-dilligence, negotiations, or deal structuring 
between you and the entrepreneur.
