Hi Future Donor,

My name is Andy Nevers and I'm the creator of a game changing new website called Servpal.com.

3265511_1423320798.7263_funddescription.jpg

Servpal.com is place where you can find and hire image professionals near you. Image pros – as we call them – include image consultants, fashion stylists, personal shoppers, branding consultants, and bespoke tailors.

3265511_1423321270.0069_funddescription.jpg

As a Marine Corps veteran, I'm an unlikely entreprenuer in the technology startup world, especially in the image industry. But, my experience transitioning from the Marine Corps fueled my passion to help others look good and feel good. After serving two deployments in Iraq and then making the decision to enter the civilian workforce, I realized I had been accustomed to my military uniform. To make transitioning from the Marine Corps a bit more seamless, I decided to find an image expert. To my surprise, the process was not as I hoped.

3265511_1423321584.5349_funddescription.jpg

A directory for stylists in my area did not exist. The services offerings were often unclear. The fees for services were not transparent. The celebrity stylists weren't quite in my network or in my desired price range. Thus, while obtaining my business degree at George Mason University, Servpal.com was conceived.

3265511_1423321689.004_funddescription.jpg

Servpal.com is for you. It's a place for you to find a new friend -- a "pro pal" -- who's going to help you enhance your personal image. A site like this didn't exist when I was transitioning from the Marine Corps. A site like this didn't exist after a friend of mine gave birth and diligently sought wardrobe assistance. A site like this didn't exist when a buddy of mine was up for a promotion and wanted some coaching. And a site like this didn't exist when a friend with raw styling talent decided to market her new image business. So, I decided to create it.

3265511_1423321730.4981_funddescription.jpg

We're a tech startup after all. With your donation and support, we can upgrade the technical infrastructure of our site, we can create better communications tools for clients and image pros, we can enhance marketing tools for image pros, and we can grow our business to help serve you. I hope you'll watch our video to learn more about Servpal and please visit Servpal.com to test drive our site. We're making finding and hiring an image professional just a click away.

3265511_1423322084.7799_funddescription.jpg

I hope you'll share this fundraiser so we can reach our goal. Any donation amount you can contribute -- whether it's $10, $20, $50 $100, $1000+ or ANY amount that is comfortable for you -- is hugely appreciated and will help us provide the best services to you. We've got some great prizes and rewards in store for you if you do. We're so thankful and so appreciative, and we hope you'll share this fundraiser within your networks. Thank you!

Warm Regards,

Andy

WOW! What a morning?!

A few days ago we received a random phone call from a commercial property owner who had a Gaines Street location suddenly become available. He tried our products...loved them...and wants The AfterGlow to be housed in one of his Gaines Street properties.

We toured the shop this morning and it is PERFECT! Plus, it is HALF the cost of the original property we were considering!

By working with this property owner and a few amazing small business owners, we can cut our fundraising goal by 50% !!!

Now, instead of $60,000 our recalculated start-up cost is $30,000!!!

Thank you all for your prayers, encouragement and support. Let's do this!!

We want to introduce, The AfterGlow to Tallahassee, Florida. The AfterGlow will be an artisan bakery, cafe and marketplace that offers fresh, new options for the conscious consumer!

Daily menu options will include something for everyone:
Paleo-friendly pastries
Vegetarian & Vegan options
Delicate pet*ts fours
Homemade syrups & creamers (yup, we make them on-site)
Cappuccino Popsicles
Miniature, old-fashioned buttery desserts
And more...Evening menu options will include:
Cocktails by our amazing Mixologist
Crafted desserts to be paired with our cocktails
And much, much more!


We will offer rotating menus that provide a variety of rich, creative delights for every season.

Don't live in Tallahassee? Don't worry, we can ship pastries to anywhere in the US!

Look, we are not developers or venture capitalists. We are a local, creative couple who just want to give consumers another option.

We want to see their facial expressions when they try a new dessert. We want to feel genuinely connected to our community and create a cool spot where everyone is welcomed. No gimmicks. No VIPs. No fluff. No shareholders. Just us and you, our customers.

We have estimated start-up and initial operating costs to be $30,000.

^ iirc if you don't hit the goal on kickstarter you don't get the money

This is the only decent thread you've ever made OP.
