"How fast can you help us raise?"

"How fast can you help us raise?" used to be our most common question.

We don't answer it anymore.

After tracking 47 funding rounds and $47M+ raised, the data is clear: founders who lead with urgency have a 0% close rate.

Successful founders ask: "What metrics matter most to investors in my space?"

They spend 4+ months building relationships before pitching and close 24% of first meetings.

Failed raises start with:

"How quickly can we close?" They skip relationship-building and never convert meetings into checks.

Here’s how real capital gets raised:

Build relationships first, then raise.

Send monthly updates for months before launching your formal round.

One client did this with 47 VCs and closed in 5 weeks because investors already knew him.

Speed doesn't kill raises. Desperation does.
