Your input on an ad in this forum

Hello everyone,

I'd like your input on an ad I posted twice in the "Looking for Capital/Biz Partners" section of the forum.

That although we've had several contacts off the forum, there were no replies to the posts. As opposed to some of the other ads getting replies to their posts in that same section of the forum.

Shown below, is the ad. The contact information was removed indicating that it's not the purpose of the post:

<-- start of ad -->

Join a company that has appeared on ESPN2 four times, has some of the largest marine businesses on board, sponsors multiple Pro Anglers and literally has instant revenue!

Serious potential investors can speak with the companies Pro Anglers, CPA and Law firm!

All investors will receive straight equity in the company. No stocks issued, meaning you don't have to worry about future dilution of stock!

Must be able to invest at least $25,000

Only raising an initial $300,000

<-- end of ad -->

So, why do you think there were no replies to the ad in the forum? Was it cause of lack of information or something?

Please advise. I'd appreciate it. Thanks in advance!

I think the fact that you said $25,000 min was a drawback. I have maybe a few thousand to invest myself and I think that represents a majority of the people here however, I could be wrong.
I know that with my money and my partner we're investing in a couple websites and affiliate programs after much research and $25,000 is WAY over our budget.

I think he said it was an AD not a pitch??? I don't know but for an ad you should let them contact you to get the details opposed to giving them on the ad.

I didn't include the contact information in the ad cause that was not the purpose of the post. Anyway, seeing that I did get get a couple of replies to my inquiry, thank you all for your input!
