Invest in Your Community
By joining as a member of COIN, either as an Investor or an Entrepreneur, you will be kept informed of opportunities to attend entrepreneur presentations and gain access to information and resources about investing locally, building a solid business plan, local funding options, and other services and information.
If you want to support your community and are interested in helping local entrepreneurs build toward their business goals and grow our local economy, COIN is a great way to get involved. You may be able to find other ROI options elsewhere, but investing locally also comes with positive ROI, including the great feeling you get when you know that you’ve helped make a difference for your community.
Funding for your big dreams and ambitious business plans can be difficult to obtain, no matter how hard you work or how solid your business opportunity or plan may be, especially if your capital needs are less than $25,000. COIN can potentially help you by providing opportunities to present about your business to local investors, meet local investors who might be interested in helping, and by providing you information and services to increase your chances of success.
DISCLAIMER
COIN offers no legal, investment, or financial advice, nor does COIN itself solicit, offer, or recommend any business opportunities. COIN provides basic forms and templates for the purpose of providing information about local businesses to its members, but COIN does not represent these forms to be anything more than general identifying information to facilitate personal introduction and examples of agreements and other documents that may or may not support the goals of investors and entrepreneurs. Any actual investment information and documentation required for any particular investment or financing transaction is the sole responsibility of the individuals, businesses, or other organizations directly involved, and of any appropriate professionals deemed necessary to effect such transactions.
COIN does not participate in any negotiations or solicitations for investment transactions, nor does it participate in the investment transactions themselves. COIN exists solely to facilitate networking between local business owners and managers and interested COIN members.
The fact that COIN may facilitate submissions and/or distributions of information from individuals, businesses, and other organizations should not be construed as any sort of endorsement or approval of such submissions by COIN or its members. COIN does not examine or otherwise consider submissions beyond simply receiving them, checking them for basic identifying information, and forwarding them to the COIN members. COIN distributes Business Opportunity submissions to its members according to instructions received by the submitting individuals and/or entities, and is made without qualification of any kind by COIN itself.
COIN activities do not and shall not constitute an offer to sell, or the solicitation of an offer to buy, securities or any other investment or financing opportunity, document, or vehicle.
In making an investment or financing decision, investors or financiers must rely on their own examination of the issuer or maker, and the terms of the offering or other transaction or transaction documentation, including the merits and risks involved.
Prospective investors or financiers should not construe COIN as providing legal, tax or financial advice. Each prospective investor or financier should consult his or her own professional advisors as to the legal, tax, financial or other matters relevant to the suitability of any investment or financing transaction or transaction documentation for such investor or financier.
