🧭 The step-by-step guide to raising your next round

Understanding the key milestones of an investment process is a crucial step for any founder eyeing external financing. With only about 20% of new businesses in the US surviving the first year, securing funding for future growth is fundamental.

That’s where we step in. Here’s our brief guide to successfully navigating an investment round:

1️⃣ Start early: Identify your ideal investor profile as soon as possible. Investors should not only bring capital but also support and champion your vision.

2️⃣ Prepare for due diligence: Be ready for thorough scrutiny from investors and prepare all necessary docs beforehand to speed up the process.

3️⃣ Pick your financing instrument: Whether it's convertible loans or equity, choose the option that suits your startup's current stage and future plans.

4️⃣ Prep the contracts: Use battle-tested templates and get legal advice to sign a fair and balanced investment agreement.

5️⃣ Negotiate: Be prepared to discuss investment size, company valuation and investor rights.
