Online Solar Marketplace Geostellar Raises $1 Million Equity Crowdfunding Over Three Months.
Geostellar, a leading online solar rooftop marketplace, has closed a $1 million round of equity crowdfunding. The company listed their offering with Return on Change, an online investment platform. The funding round was raised over a three month period. Described as the “KAYAK of solar rooftop installations”, Geostellar has positioned their company to aid homeowners in securing the best deals on solar rooftop panels by comparing and tailoring a variety of installation and financing plans. The majority of the capital raised will be used to further develop Geostellar’s platform to facilitate interactions between solar sales agents and homeowners, and an API for integration with third-party Web sites and 
mobile tools.
“Return on Change was particularly helpful in finding the right investors for us. They had all the information in front of them, and pushing the ‘Invest’ button was a simple way to express their interest in participating. It was easy for me to update the site, rather than circulating new documents…Raising capital online since the JOBS Act makes it much easier to spread the word, get potential investors engaged and provide information,” the CEO of Geostellar, David Levine stated.
Howard Teich, an investor of Geostellar commented on the process,
“The ease of Return on Change’s investment program allowed me to invest in one of the most important companies on the planet [Geostellar]. Without Return on Change I would not have been able to show up and take action to participate…”
Return on Change CEO and co-founder Sang H. Lee lauded the fundraising process;
“We believe Geostellar is a clear example of a business that has profit potential for investors and long term sustainable value. Our team had a great time working alongside Geostellar’s team, and collaborating on sharing the opportunity with potential investors to reach the $1 million goal. Additionally, Geostellar’s proactive strategy in attracting investments was paramount to their successful fundraise. We’re excited to form a long term relationship with Geostellar and see how we can continue to be of value to their growth,”
A leader in the growing investment crowdfunding movement, Return on Change’s platform provides startups with the tools to efficiently connect with accredited investors online. Its centralized capital raise management tools allow entrepreneurs to easily disseminate information, handle investor accreditation, and access investors outside of an entrepreneur’s direct network.
