“If you give up too much of your company before you’ve reached a certain size, it will be hard to attract investment. Investors will look at your Cap Table and question if the founders have enough incentive to keep working hard.” We want to thank Leo Trudel, investor, mentor, and former founder, for sharing his knowledge on raising and allocating capital at an early stage. Listen to the video for all the great tips, including the most efficient ways to spend the capital you raise. 👀

The Do's and Don'ts of raising capital from investors. The Do's: - Do start the conversation early. 🗣 Even if you think your company is too early for a specific investor, it is never too soon to get to know them - Do ask questions of your prospective investor. ❓ Ask every investor you talk to for their investment philosophy. Not only does it demonstrate you are doing your homework, it shows that you care about more than just capital. The Don'ts: - Don't let valuation get in the way. 💰 In the initial stages, valuation should rarely be part of the conversation. It is okay to have a low valuation when you are just starting out. You will grow into the valuation you are aiming for when the time is right. - Don't present from a slide deck on an introductory investor call. 💻 Engage in conversation first. Take this important first step to get to know your potential investor and vice versa.
