NMEX allows all types of Crowdfunding except Equity Based Crowdfunding where securities or other passive investments are solicited in exchange for any type of ownership interest in the project or company.
The four typical types of crowdfunding
1. Equity Based Crowdfunding: Investors receive some ownership in the company.
2. Donation Based Crowdfunding: Contributions go towards a charitable cause.
3. Lending Based Crowdfunding: Investors are repaid for their investment over a period of time.
4. Reward Based Crowfunding: Investors receive tangible items or services in return for their funds or In-Kind contributions of goods & services.
In addition the NMEX Crowdfunding platform allows a type of Crowdfunding for In-Kind Poducts & Services from rewards and donation based contributors, and potential joint venture partners. This In-Kind crowdfunding where products and services are received rather than money can be just as important to the growth and success of a project or company as a monetary contribution, and many times is easier to achieve.
Crowdfunding on NMEX is limited to MarketMaker and Listed Company NMEX subscribers only. One advantage of the NMEX Crowdfunding process is that other than the normal subscription fee the process is free and all the funds raised by the fundraising entity goes directly to the fundraiser. Additional fees are only applied if the fundraiser employs the assistance of the NMEX Business Client Services for some purpose such as extra marketing, legal or accounting assistance.
The success of any Crowdfunding effort involves many factors including a significant amount of marketing. Fundraisers should not expect to be successful in the heavily competitive current Crowdfunding marketplace without significant marketing efforts employed to reach potential contributors.
Setting Up a NMEX Crowd Fund
NMEX Crowdfunds involve a two or three step process, all easily and quickly established. Step One involves setting up the Fund Page. Step Two involves setting up the associated Funding Voucher which contributors will use to contribute funds. Step Three is employed if the fundraiser desires to implement the In-Kind Products & Services model.
Step One
A. Go to the Fund section of the Main Menu and create a Fund which describes the project to be funded in detail. Choose a descriptive Title for the project that will allow easy reference in other documents and marketing. (e.g. The John Smith Movie Fund)
B. In the description portion of the Fund include a proprietary code of your choice right at the top of the description. This code will be used later in Step Two as a Funding Voucher Code. (e.g. Funding Voucher Code FV123456JS)
C. Once the Fund Posting is completed, copy or record the URL of the Fund page on NMEX. It will be used in Step Two to place in the Funding Voucher.
Step Two
A. Go to the Voucher Section of the Main Menu and create a Funding Voucher for the Fund. There are two types of Vouchers generally used on NMEX, Funding Vouchers for Crowdfunding purposes, and Discount Vouchers for discounting products and services on NMEX. When naming your Funding Voucher it is important to Name it similarly to the Name of the Fund established in Step One. Also always identify it as a Funding Voucher. (e.g. Funding Voucher - The John Smith Movie Fund)
B. In the Discount Field put a "0"
C. In the Price of the Voucher put in a reasonable figure such as "10". This will be multiplied by the Number of Vouchers in the Amount of Vouchers Field to give you the Total amount you are attempting to Fund Raise.
