Fundraising is a pipeline problem
Founders who treat fundraising like sales (a long list, clear stages, weekly follow-ups and a deadline) close faster. Aim for 30โ60 qualified investors at the top of the funnel for a seed round.
Momentum matters: try to run first meetings in a tight window so term sheets arrive together, giving you options.
