In today's financial marketplace, a comprehensive evaluation and due diligence phase must take place uncovering all the details and logistics behind your project including your management team. This alone can encompass between 30 to 120 days. However, this phase of the process will determine the viability of the project, its potential, the downside risk, and outline any contingencies. The most important element to the amount of time that this takes place is the level of preparation that has been completed prior to starting the process. It is very crucial to understand that the methods of raising capital several years ago have changed considerably and may not work in today's financial environment.
