Sample Book Insights: #1 The availability of capital from friends and family has always been extremely limited for entrepreneurs, and in the past this has been the case because people were generally reluctant to lend money to strangers. #2 Social media has changed the way we communicate, and it has also changed the way we raise capital. Social media allows people to expand their social networks, which allows them to expand their business networks as well. This is how crowdfunding works. #3 The most basic definition of crowdfunding is raising money for a project or venture from a group of people who are large and undefined: the crowd. #4 There are three types of crowdfunding: project, accredited investor, and social media.
