Ryan,
You really think the social media is a viable way to go? I tried that for a number of months and got ****.
As for the OP, if you are only making 5 points on a deal, that is a real problem. I know the market is competitive, but 5 points is too low. I did around 700k last month in funding, and average 8 points.
I am pretty small shop, me an assistant and some outside guys I 1099 with.
