Before you fundraise

Got a startup idea or MVP and looking for funding?

Check you’ve actually got something they can say yes to.

More investor conversations do not fix a startup that is still missing the evidence, clarity or ask those conversations depend on.

You think you need funding.

Before you spend time chasing funding, make sure you have something investors can believe in.

Most first-time founders start with:

Who can I pitch?

But investors usually care about something earlier:

  • Who wants this?
  • What evidence do you have?
  • What have people actually done?
  • Why will this become a real business?

Finding investors is not the hardest part.

Being ready when you find them is.

Before you start pitching, make sure your startup is giving investors something serious to say yes to.
