Then, describe in detail how you made or planned to make your industries and markets (parts of the world) attractive to VCs (Venture Capitalist).

Three VC (Venture Capitalist) questions to Fadoodle:
If I invest $3million, when will I get my money back?
How are you competing with other bike rentals companies?
Why the public would choose your bikes over your competitors?
What makes your company standout from your competitors? Are your bikes lighter? More colorful?
Will Fadoodle be the exclusive provider of bike-share within the cities?
I will only be interested in investing if the bike-share market will be regulated so that only Fadoodle can operate in the given cities. Securing such a deal would cost more money but also create more revenue and licensing values, similar to taxi cab medallions. If Fadoodle can securee such agreements with cities I will be willing to invest $600,000 per city for 3 cities for a total of $1.8 million. The $100,000 extra per city is to be used exclusively to negotiate that these markets remain closed-markets.
Do you have exclusive rights to the bike rental market’s in which you are trying to enter?
What guarentee’s do I have that my money would be invested towards the projcets directly?
What precautions do you have in place to avoid issues such that Divvy had when pentrating the new markets?
Feel free to contact me directly with your responses. I really like your ideas, and would be interested in investing a solid portion, if not all, of my $2 million into this company.
