Crowd Source investments?

Depends on the product / idea, how unique it is, and most importantly, if it will attract demand?

This is a bad idea man, Bank give loan not investment.

Just google "startup funding." There's tons of sites that link up investors and entrepreneurs. If your idea is good enough you could get a big startup investment company like Y Combinator behind you.

Definitely if you have not taken steps to secure patent and protect yourself.

Patent the idea first.

So you only have an idea but no product...maybe go hire or find some production company/engineers to design it

You get the gist of what i'm saying.

If overall its not something you can patent (as there many ideas/products etc. you cannot patent), then someone else can replicate what you have. Nothing you can do about it.

Your only hope of success is getting an investor or two to give you a significant sum of money to blitz the market and get your brand out there. In such case i'd avoid going down a crowd funding route.

Yes, thanks for your help

Raise funds by sales. Create a demand and brand and run it as long as possible.

My entire manufacturing business is all about this or duplicating someones elses idea if not patented pr trademarked.

If he has something that is unique, high demand, and not out there, then he needs to go down an investment route. If he doesn't, and someone with more capital comes along, they'll overshadow him. It would almost be as if he never existed and the idea was never his to begin with.

Let's evaluate this based on the OP's various statements: OP's got an idea, nothing tangible, no prototype, not even a mock up, no patent, no sales history, nothing but an big idea, and is not willing to borrow money or invest his/her own, but wants an investor to throw lots of funds at it.

OP will need to demonstrate substantial sales potential and a personal belief in the product that involves putting every penny the OP has, including mortgaging their home, borrowing money from friends, family and yes, even a BANK, and spending every cent they can beg, borrow and steal into it to prove it will sell, before any investor will even consider putting money into the product.

Crowdfunding doesn't have those limitations.

Telling the OP anything else is wasting their time.

OP might not be ready for this kind of action. Seems a bit lost, sadly.
