Global Crowdfunding Readiness Advisory
Introducing Global Crowdfunding Readiness Advisory
Global Crowdfunding Readiness Advisory™ is the international consulting practice of Dorian Dickinson, LLC, created to help non-U.S. founders strengthen the business, narrative, and operational foundations required for a smooth and disciplined crowdfunding raise in their own markets.
We do not broker securities, solicit investors, or conduct regulated activities. Instead, we prepare founders to confidently work with their local licensed platforms, legal counsel, and intermediaries.
What We Do
Build the foundation for a successful capital raise
Our advisory model focuses on strengthening the internal capabilities, messaging, and operations that investors expect when evaluating a crowdfunding opportunity. With deep experience in the crowdfunding ecosystem and a disciplined, compliance-aware perspective, we help founders close the readiness gaps that commonly hinder raises.
Support that fits the realities of your market
Every market operates under its own regulatory framework, culture, and investor expectations. Our work is tailored to your jurisdiction and coordinated with your legal advisors and chosen regulated intermediaries. This ensures that your strategy, materials, and communications align with the local environment in which your raise will take place.
Business-focused, not transaction-focused
We work exclusively on the business advisory side. Our support helps you define your raise strategy, craft a compelling and factual narrative, improve transparency, organize your campaign processes, and create structured investor communications — all while avoiding any activity that crosses into securities recommendations or investor solicitation.
