Fundraising is a process you can & should optimize!

Fundraising is a process you can & should optimize!

Let's start with what is a dream startup?
A dream startup is more than just a business. It evolves from an issue you, the founder, are passionate about. It has your own authentic touch. It is part of your identity. It carries your personal values. You create it based on your own projection of what is important in business and what a business should look like and how you can make a positive difference, have an impact beyond yourself.  It is about you taking the freedom to choose and create your own path to success!

Doesn't ring a bell? Just think of Steve Jobs & Apple, Elon Musk & Tesla, Sara Blakely & Spanx, Arianna Huffington & Huffington Post, J.K. Rowling & Harry Potter,...

The good news
Investors love authentic, unique, not so easily replicable founder stories & startups.

?The bad news
Statistics says that business angels invest in just 1% of the business plans they receive. In other words,99% of you reading this will not get funded! Not because you are not good enough or your startup is not promising enough but because you will make one or more of the many "avoidable mistakes"such as seeking the wrong business angel, or simply misinterpret their motivation to invest but most importantly because you will fundraise without a clear strategic process behind!

You can learn the 5-step fundraising process on-line and start implementing it immediately. Increase the chances to live your dream! Check https://www.brainswork.at/#!courses/nr9l1

Go for it again and again :) One of the rare really passionate entrepreneurs and investors. The quote I like the most: "A dream startup is more than just a business. It evolves from an issue you, the founder, are passionate about. It has your own authentic touch. It is part of your identity. It carries your personal values. You create it based on your own projection of what is important in business and what a business should look like and how you can make a positive difference, have an impact beyond yourself.
