Plan carefully

Planning is an important part of SQUAWK FUNDING. You’re trying to show Wellness Lovers why they should support your product, so you’ll need to clearly show them:

• what the product is
• why they should fund your product
• the timeframe for developing your product if you reach your funding goals
• incentives, rewards or shares you’ll exchange them for funding your business idea.

Set your goals

Set goals so your Wellness Lovers know what to expect. These include:

• how much funding you need
• the timeframe for getting funding
• how long it will take to develop your business or product.

It’s important to manage expectations, so your SQUAWK backers (donors) can track your progress. 

Check your legal responsibilities

Depending on your business idea, and the type of project,

you may need to:

• register for licenses
• meet legal terms and conditions.

This is especially important if your business idea or reward to your SQUAWK backers is a financial product or shares.
