Fsh Tank = TikTok + Kickstarter. Attention spans are short and we live in a mobile-first world so we're giving early stage founders a fun and easy way to raise capital from family and friends   As a child of Caribbean immigrants, I had an insatiable longing for the American dream. I didn't grow up well connected, but I wanted to pursue entrepreneurship from a young age. Only one problem - with limited access to money, coaching, or like-minded peers I had no idea where to start.   That's why we created Fsh Tank. It was an answer to aspiring and current small business owners that have the drive to succeed as entrepreneurs, but lack the necessary direction and resources. It's the product we wished existed. We can truly attest to the proverb - "necessity is the mother of invention". This idea wasn't born in a vacuum. It was birthed out of a real need that we felt as frustrated aspiring entrepreneurs. We felt as though if we feel this way, maybe other people feel this way too.   Learn More: https://fshtank.webflow.io/about-us   The Fervent Four Show:   Did you know that only 4% of businesses hit $1M in revenue?
