I’m biased here, but our team at Hustle Fund has published the most comprehensive guide on startup fundraising to help first-time software founders (IMO).
And now you can get it here for free.
Why we wrote the book
Fundraising used to be reserved for an “elite” group of people. If you weren’t born into a family of venture-backed entrepreneurs or grew up in Silicon Valley, you would have no idea how to raise money.
This meant the “elite” group of people were the only ones with the opportunity to fundraise and build billion-dollar companies.
Over the years, I’ve been writing tactical tips and tricks for fundraising on this blog, on Twitter / X, and on our Hustle Fund blog. I’ve created small janky guides – like this one Questions that VCs may ask you. But there hasn’t been a comprehensive, one-stop place, that has all of this information.
Until now.
We believe great founders can come from anywhere and look like anyone. So Tam Pham, Kera DeMars, and I created Raise Millions to bring transparency to the world of fundraising. Whether you’re a solo founder from halfway around the world or a fresh college graduate in the US, you’ll learn how to raise for your tech startup.
What’s inside the book
Chapter 1: how the fundraising process actually works
Chapter 2: the essential ingredients of a killer pitch deck
Chapter 3: building relationships with investors
Chapter 4: how to pitch to investors
Chapter 5: steps to take once an investor verbally commits
Bonus resources: email scripts, templates, and a cheat sheet of our entire book
This book is educational and actionable. You’ll learn everything you need to know to fundraise from the pre-seed stage all the way to your Series A.
Seriously, this guide will cover everything you need.
And it’s free…
Part of why I write is to hopefully help other founders avoid a lot of the mistakes that I made as a founder. (I made SO MANY MISTAKES.)
So, anyone can download Raise Millions: The ultimate guide to fundraising for first-time founders here for free. And let me know what you think.
