“It was a pleasure to participate in the Investor Champagne Roundtable - the event was a good one! ”

“Our strategy, real estate Asset Backed Lending, appeals to a specific subset of hedge fund investors. Hedge Connection and the IMR Meet the Manager Forum has provided direct access to qualified investors that have expressed interest in our strategy. As a member of Hedge Connection, we have been able to gain access to the Hedge Connection team and their qualified and vetted investor members. We greatly appreciate their support and are very satisfied with their service.”

“We found one of our best performing hedge funds on Hedge Connection. To date we have invested $40 million dollars with them and will add them to the new Fund of Funds we will soon be launching.”

“I would like to thank the group at Hedge Connection for creating such a useful marketing tool. I signed up as a free posting member when you offered 2 free tickets and actually got an investment of $10 million dollars from the second investor I picked. It took time to develop the relationship, but eventually it paid off with a nice investment. We continue to use the site and refer your service to our hedge fund friends.”

“There are very few viable marketing options out there for emerging managers such as myself. It is great to see new interest come from not only qualified leads through your preferred program, but also investors that obtained my basic information posted on your site for free. I just closed my first new investor and could not be happier with the results. Thank you!”

“Hedge Connection helped me think about marketing as a process. They were very hands on to help me identify the investors to contact and how to follow-up.”

“All of the investors we sourced through Hedge Connection were new contacts for us that otherwise we probably would not have found. We have had conference calls and/or meetings with the majority of them.”

“Hedge Connection allows you to get in front of qualified investors. I have met 2 investors on Hedge Connection. I corresponded via email with both and they are currently monitoring my fund's performance.”

“I recently was searching for information on a couple hedge fund
managers not listed on any of the hedge fund databases. Obviously, finding information on private limited partnerships can be very time consuming. You can try calling information if you happen to know the city where the manager resides, or try to figure out the website address, but many hedge funds simply do not have websites and do not have their phone numbers listed. I searched Google for a few minutes and sure enough Hedge Connection appeared along with the name of the manager. It took me a couple minutes to sign up on the Hedge Connection website, and shortly thereafter I received a call from a representative verifying my investor status. I was able to locate information on both managers quickly and easily using Hedge Connection without spending a penny.
”

“I raised $2 million from an investor I found on Hedge Connection. I picked a name of an investor that I not only knew but who was an investor in a previous fund I ran. However, I hadn't spoken to this investor in a long time. Finding this investor on HC gave me a reason to contact him again. The info provided got me quickly up to speed with what the investor is currently doing and also gave me an immediate talking point. The investor ended up investing $2 million dollars in my new fund. So there was value to finding an investor that I already "knew". The system helped me identify an an ideal investor based on the search criteria.”

“Lisa (Vioni) continually improves the service making it easier for us to obtain a list of suitable, pre-qualified investors; for instance, it is now easier to see on the service whether or not a potential investor even invests in distressed debt (our strategy) or not. This enables me to target only those investors who will be the most receptive to us and for whom we are most likely the best fit.”

“I think you have developed what the hedge fund industry has a very strong need for (and will make my life a lot easier!! ). I've worked in marketing previously, but was new to the hedge fund industry this year and there just hasn't seemed to be any great Contact Directory or product to use as an effective marketing tool. Thanks again for the follow-up calls, it's very impressive how interactive you are with your client base.”

“The IMR Meet the Manager event in NY was a very positive event for us to take part in. We made a number of new institutional relationships, and felt the forum provided the right type of venue for introductions to our fund. I was overall impressed by the professional and focused nature of the event.”

“I would like to commend your entire company for the great job on the investor networking event. It was a pleasure to meet your team. The contacts made at this event will prove to be extremely valuable.”

“Lisa and team, thank you for your incredible site. I have seen other sites, but yours is incredible.

It allows you to actually contact Three potential investors. In doing so, I spoke with a HNW individual who gave me valuable insights and helped me fine tune my offering.

After speaking with him, I was also inspired to confirm our qualifications for Ohio-Qualified Manager Certification, which will designate us as a Qualified Manager for the purposes of five State of Ohio retirement systems, Ohio State Highway Patrol Retirement, Ohio Police and Fire Pension Fund, State Teachers Retirement System, Ohio Public Employees Retirement System, and School Employees Retirement System of Ohio.

Our certification will make us more attractive to "seeders" like this HNW investor, who realize, our firm will now get better positioning when these retirement systems seek managers.

Thank you again Lisa!!”

“Lisa is successful because she understands the importance of relationship building. She didn't just sell us her service and then disappear. She is in regular contact with me, providing advice, referrals, and other opportunities to help us achieve our fundraising goals.”

“I just wanted to compliment you on a great tool you guys have created. The web site is very professional. I liked the video portion a lot - very creative.”

“While it is easy for us to identify large investors with known macro mandates, Hedge Connection provided a link to pools of capital located off the hedge fund industry's beaten track. In particular, we were able to directly connect with family offices who explicitly needed exposure to our unique take on macro.”

“ I renewed my membership to Hedge Connection. During my first year I over 70% of the investors I met through the site I did not know before. There is tremendous value in having a third party talk to investors and ensure that they are qualified, interested in my strategy and open to conversation.”
