New App Funding Website Helps App Developers Bring Dreams To Reality
Online, January 4, 2012 (Newswire.com) - Tony Simpson, former regional president of Verizon Wireless, now president of Florida-based sports simulation developer, Hard Lick Sports, Inc., has announced the launch of a new app funding web site, Survival Funding. Survival Funding is designed to help young app developers properly organize their businesses in a way that optimizes app funding opportunities and increases their chances for success in a very competitive market. Simpson and his studio were successful in raising $500,000 to fund the development of their upcoming mobile iOS & Android football simulation and are sharing their knowledge to help app developers worldwide. Their app funding website shares a unique fundraising business structure to help make the product more attractive to potential investors.
Among the regular blog contributors to help developers with their app funding efforts is top-rated business planning blogger Tim Berry, founder of Palo Alto Software, co-founder of Borland International and cited by Business Week as one of its top 20 entrepreneurs to follow on Twitter in March of 2010. More "AAA" bloggers are expected to participate in sharing their experience and advice in organizing, funding and/or running a software development startup. Due to Survival Funding's mission of app & game development startup funding, a number of technology manufacturers with constituencies composed primarily of small app developers such as Nvidia and Unity 3D Technologies have provided advice, promotional support, and donations toward the construction and operation of this much-needed new site.
"The Survival Funding app funding site is designed to grow over time and become an aggregator of pertinent, useful, usable content specifically for app startups and to provide developers with detailed information and instructions regarding the "how-to" use the battle-tested, proven fundraising business model" states Tony Simpson. "Survival Funding will supply important market information and industry data to help developers educate potential investors, make them feel comfortable investing in app development projects, and possibly later in making an investment in the studio itself" concluded Mr. Simpson. The proposed investment package strategy is based on several legal structural entities, focusing particular attention to the use of a Limited Liability Company as the legal vehicle into which investors actually place their money. For those developers that desire a quick-start toward app funding efforts, Survival Funding is offering a "starter kit" composed of important documents that were used effectively in raising money by Hard Lick Sports. Each starter kit contains a variety of legal documents that originally cost over $40,000 to create, but are now being made available for only $99.00 for a limited time.
