    Venture Capital is just another name for private investor. There are some private investor groups but they are not well advertised. Typically a venture capitalist does not engage in the business of private investing because there is usually no or very little return on the investment. They expect to get their money back at best. That’s why it is hard to find them, it’s not a business. However, there are some organizations that provide business resources, councilling, consulting, advice, and these are usually staffed by successful business people. The chamber of commerce in your city and the state will provide you with local information. Often, those groups will point you in the right direction for fund raising. Another resource is to join a country club and/or a golf club where business executives tend to favor. Networking is key to many aspects of business success. To get your online business producing sales revenues you can hire a professional online marketing company and put me to work making you money. My contact information is provided in the source link below.
