To solve this challenge, Spiral Marketers began in 2001 to offer its services to its clients through custom agreements designed to minimize cash outlays.

It's our form of private equity -- which we call Ventura Capital Partners.

How does it work? As its contribution to the enterprise, Ventura Capital Partners brings its expertise, resources, international network, and commitment.

In return, our partners provide a percentage of enterprise equity -- minimizing its need for immediate cash outlays.
