How to Raise (and How Not to Raise) Capital from Investors

Raising capital from investors – the real deal, how do you actually approach it? How does the entire process work? How do you find investors? What are they expecting me to present in a pitch, and what's considered good? How long does fundraising usually take? What are the most common mistakes that cause founders to fail? I will answer all of these questions, and more, in this webinar. The webinar will focus on three main topics: 1. What does the fundraising process look like from start to finish in general, including specific details about PRE-SEED, SEED, Series A, and Series B rounds. 2. The most common mistakes made when approaching investors, why they are mistakes, and what to do instead. 3. How to properly prepare before starting a fundraising round to increase your chances of success.
