Hi Derrick -
Thank you for your service! At first glance, i would recommend clarify what the for-profit business will be doing if you are looking for investors. If you separately run a GOTV non-profit, you will want to keep these two apart from each other from an organizational structure perspective (two LLCs or two Incs or one LLC / one Inc.). Your for-profit venture can always donate a percentage of profit to the GOTV, but you will need that clearly stated in all investor documents (plus you'll need to determine the order of who gets paid when and disclose all).
Major steps you'll need to complete:
1) business plan
2) detailed financials
3) market analysis
4) legal setup
5) deal-sizing (this is the part that determines the percent of the business sold for each investor share).
Soliciting investor funds can get very complicated very quickly so try and keep it simple, and conservative, and be sure to disclose all risks up front and in writing.
Best of luck,
Bryan
