Struggling to secure vital investments for your startup? You’re not alone. According our latest industry report, 52% of founders pitch to between 10 and 50 investors before securing their first investment. Joshua Garrison from Apollo.io shares his insights into overcoming one particular fundraising challenge—investor outreach—and how he turned his ideas into successful businesses by overcoming this hurdle. “People told me the only way to get in front of a VC is a warm introduction. The problem with that for somebody like me is I don't come from a wealthy background. I didn't go to an A+ school. I don't have those connections.” Rather than relying on warm introductions, startup founders can use other methods to meet and pitch investors and successfully earn investments from VCs. “I built my list, did my research, and crafted emails. And I booked 20 first meetings with VCs from those cold emails," Josh explained.
