EXHIBIT 10.30

                               FINDER'S AGREEMENT

         This agreement (the  "Agreement") is entered into as of August 15, 2000
by and between VALUESTAR CORPORATION,  a Colorado corporation  ("ValueStar") and
HULL CAPITAL CORP., a Delaware corporation ("Finder").

                                    RECITALS

         WHEREAS, Finder represents that it will endeavor to introduce ValueStar
to one or more Targets (as defined in  Paragraph 2 below) who may be  interested
in engaging in a financing  arrangement with ValueStar  involving or relating to
an investment in securities of ValueStar or an entity formed for the purposes of
acquiring securities of ValueStar or a joint venture relating to the acquisition
of ValueStar (any one or more of the foregoing being hereinafter  referred to as
a "Transaction"); and

         WHEREAS,  ValueStar desires to engage the services of Finder to provide
an  introduction  for ValueStar to such Targets in accordance with the terms and
conditions set forth in this Agreement.  This arrangement is  non-exclusive  and
ValueStar  may  engage  other  finders,  broker-dealers  and  others in its sole
discretion.

                                    AGREEMENT

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual covenants hereinafter
contained,  and for  other  good and  valuable  consideration  the  receipt  and
sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

1.       ValueStar  engages  Finder to find  Targets  interested  in effecting a
         Transaction.  Prior to contacting  Targets,  Finder and ValueStar shall
         agree on acceptable general categories of appropriate  Targets.  Finder
         will endeavor to introduce ValueStar to such Targets.

2.       For the purposes of this Agreement, "Targets" shall mean individuals or
         entities introduced to ValueStar by Finder for the purpose of providing
         funds for a  Transaction,  including  without  limitation  by making an
         investment in ValueStar.

3.       Finder agrees to register with ValueStar by facsimile (at 510-808-1400,
         Attention  Jim Stein) each Target  within 48 hours of Finder  believing
         there is any degree of interest. ValueStar shall be under no obligation
         to pay a fee on any Target not registered  with ValueStar or with which
         ValueStar or its  affiliates  have a previous  relationship.  Within 48
         hours of receipt of any  registered  investors  name,  ValueStar  shall
         notify  Finder by  facsimile  if there has been any  prior  contact  or

<PAGE>

         arrangement,  which would preclude  payment of a fee to Finder pursuant
         to this agreement upon a successful funding.

4.       Finder is only required to introduce  Targets to  ValueStar.  Target is
         not  authorized  to conduct  negotiations  or make any  commitments  on
         behalf of ValueStar.

5.       ValueStar will furnish Finder from time to time with a current business
         plan relating to ValueStar  (the  "Business  Plan"),  and copies of the
         Company's  annual and quarterly  reports.  Finder is authorized to send
         copies  and/or parts of the  Business  Plan and such reports to Targets
         only after they have been approved as such by ValueStar.

6.       In the event the efforts of Finder result in a consummated  Transaction
         with a Target pursuant to the terms of this agreement,  ValueStar shall
         pay or cause to be paid to Finder a fee in the form described  below at
         the closing of any such Transactions, as follows:

                  a)       A fee totaling  8.0% of the  "Aggregate  Value of the
                           Transaction"  for the  financing  payable in warrants
                           with  exercise  price equal to the  effective  common
                           stock price of any such financing.  "Aggregate  Value
                           of the  Transaction"  for purposes of this  Agreement
                           shall  mean any equity  funds or other  consideration
                           paid by  Target(s)  introduced  by  Finder  providing
                           consideration   of  any  kind  or   nature   paid  to
                           ValueStar,   or  stockholders  (other  than  ordinary
                           market  transactions)  of ValueStar by Finder,  or to
                           third  parties on their behalf in  connection  with a
                           Transaction,  including consideration paid at closing
                           and assumption of debt.

                  b)       The number of warrants  shall be computed by dividing
                           the  Aggregate   Value  of  the  Transaction  by  the
                           effective  common  stock price.  The  exercise  price
                           shall be the  effective  common  stock  price and the
                           term shall be no less than 5 years.

                  c)       The fee shall be  reduced by any  amounts  payable by
                           ValueStar to any other finder or broker in connection
                           with the Transaction. Any arrangements by Finder with
                           any other  finders,  brokers or persons  shall be the
                           obligation  of  Finder  but in  any  event  shall  be
                           disclosed  to  ValueStar  before  the  closing of any
                           Transaction.

                  d)       The  Aggregate  Value  of the  Transaction  shall  be
                           computed at closing.  If there are multiple closings,
                           Finder  will be paid at  each  closing.  If a  Target
                           requires  warrants  or  options  exercisable  in  the
                           future,  finder  will  be paid  only  on the  initial
                           investment only, unless otherwise agreed in writing.

7.       If at any time within 12 months  following the later of consummation of
         a Transaction and the  introduction by Finder of a Target to ValueStar,
         ValueStar enters into a Transaction  (including without  limitation,  a
         subsequent  Transaction)  with  the  Target,  or the  Target  provides,
         directly or indirectly,  capital,  credit,

<PAGE>

         funds, or other financing to ValueStar or any affiliate, then ValueStar
         shall pay to the  Finder the fees set forth in  Paragraph  4 above with
         respect to such  Transactions  or financing.  ValueStar  agrees to keep
         Finder fully informed of all contacts,  discussions,  and  negotiations
         with any  Target and to provide  Finder  with  copies of all drafts and
         executed  documents  related to any Transaction or financing  involving
         any Target.  Provided  if the Target is an entity with which  ValueStar
         already  does  business  at the  time  of  the  initial  financing  any
         subsequent  fee shall not apply if not  included  in the  documentation
         associated in the initial financing.

8.       In the event that  ValueStar  fails to pay or fails to cause to be paid
         the applicable fees set forth above at the closing of the  Transaction,
         ValueStar shall be liable for and shall pay all of Finder's  reasonable
         legal fees and  reasonable  related  expenses  in  connection  with the
         collection  of the  applicable  fees set  forth  above,  together  with
         accrued  interest  (at the prime rate) on the unpaid fees from the time
         of closing of the Transaction to the date of payment to Finder.

9.       ValueStar shall not be liable for any retainers,  cots,  expenses other
         charges incurred by Finder, any Target, or third parties at the request
         of Finder  unless  ValueStar has  authorized  such costs or expenses in
         writing.

10.      Representatives, Warranties and Covenants.

         (a)      Finder is an independent  contractor and financial advisor and
                  is not an  employee  or agent of  ValueStar  and shall have no
                  authority to bind ValueStar in any manner  whatsoever.  Finder
                  shall mot prepare any  documentation  with regard to ValueStar
                  or any potential Transaction, advise any Target concerning the
                  value of any securities of ValueStar, make any representations
                  regarding   securities  of  ValueStar  not  contained  in  the
                  Business  Plan  or  otherwise   provided  by   ValueStar,   or
                  participate  in any  negotiations  between  ValueStar  and any
                  Target.

         (b)      ValueStar  acknowledges  that  Finder  has  not  done  any due
                  diligence  with  respect  to any  Target  or with  respect  to
                  ValueStar and that Finder makes no representations  whatsoever
                  with respect to ValueStar (including,  without limitation, its
                  financial  condition or its ability to effectuate its Business
                  Plan or perform any obligations to which it or they may become
                  bound),  ValueStar  expressly agrees that Finder shall have no
                  liability  whatsoever in connection with any Target Finder may
                  introduce to ValueStar, and ValueStar acknowledges that Finder
                  makes  no  representation  or  warranty  with  respect  to its
                  ability  to obtain  any Target  interested  in and/or  able to
                  consummate a Transaction.
