Dear Member,
Your email has been received.
Thank you!
Regards,
GPP Team
Invisibility is taking anonymity to another level!!
Just nice to know that the website is still working, even though the majority of the membership cannot see it.
In exploring this matter via our contacts who have direct access to Stella, we received the below advice.
” Hi Terry!
It seams like hackers have blocked the page for most readers. BUT if you have this version : Vista/XP SP2
you can open a web reader, google chrome. There it is! If you´re lucky! Some members have found it and it still works so GPP has not taken the home page away.
We just have to wait until it´s back for all of us again. Very soon I hope! ”
Another member wrote from Sweden:
” Dear Terry,
there is an intensive discussion right now because of the GPP website is not available for many. In Sweden and the world.
But … I have no problem to get into the backoffice, either to myself or anyone else’s backoffice.
This suggests that it is not GPP, which closed down the page. It should be a technical problem somewhere. ”
On a personal note we have one computer with XP and Google Chrome but no access to the website and our second new computer has Vista and Google Chrome but still no access to the website. So don’t be disappointed if you have the same experience.
Let us hope that these technicalities are overcome in the near future. We will keep you posted
We felt that we had covered this question in an earlier post, we remember penning the answer, but it was probably in subsequent correspondence, so we will cover it here in this post.
The question is why have WBWSO opted to seek funding from 5,000 Angel investors rather than from say a few Angel investors subscribing a large sum each.
It is a question of control and flexibility. Large investors will usually dictate to the company and try to influence how the company functions – ‘tail wagging the dog’ – which no self respecting entrepreneur wants to happen. Such investors could also demand, not unreasonably, shares to support their ‘risk’ investment, providing them with an equity in the company and it’s business.
Five thousand small investors cannot exert such demands on the company and whilst it may create an ongoing management issue, relating to the interests of a large body of investors, the appropriate software will accommodate such considerations. This leaves the management free to move the company in the direction of their choice, so long as they uphold their arrangement to the 5,000 Angels.
The only uncertainty at the outset for WBWSO was whether they could find 5,000 Angels, who will supply collectively adequate funding, to create the catalyst for their business operation. This WBWSO have done with your help and the referral incentive.
In three years time WBWSO can fulfil it’s obligation to the 5,000 Angels and steam off into the future without any outside influences in the company and 100% equity for the original entrepreneurs. Whereas the other option saddles them with shareholders for the duration and a much reduced equity in their company and their idea.
