In order to get funding for our businesses, we have to find and pitch to investors. Sounds easier said than done, right? This is one of the most nerve wracking and challenging steps you’ll take, but it is worth it. If you put yourself there and talk to enough people, you will get the funding you need. Even if you’re an introvert. Even if you hate n…

Before we can go out and raise money for our businesses, there are things we need to have dialed in. The idea, the numbers, our pitch and the investors we’re going after. This stuff is critical, but THE most important thing is the relationship we have with money. Trying to raise money without dialing in our money mindset is a recipe for burnout, di…

If you’re anything like me, being an entrepreneur appeals to you because you can design the life you want and enjoy a level of freedom you can’t get from a 9-5. The problem is: a lot of us build businesses that end up creating more stress and eat away at the freedom we got into it for. Finding a business that meets your lifestyle goals is ideal. Fo…

For entrepreneurs, running fast and charging hard comes with the territory. But that could be doing nothing but running us into the ground. A lot of the things we think are “normal” parts of building and running businesses are actually signs of burnout. So many of us are stuck in that “wired and tired” mode and we don’t even know that we’re well ov…

The playbook of raising money that people used to rely on has changed a lot over the last few years. Now that the market is more competitive and the pace of innovation is so much faster, what worked a decade ago won’t produce the same results today. Some of the best practices we were taught aren’t as entrepreneur-friendly as we think. A lot of foun…

When you build a business, you aren’t just creating a product, you’re also setting up a legal entity.

Before you can even think of approaching investors, first-time founders have to make sure they have the legal ducks in …

Raising money through investors is the default for growing a company, but it might not be the right move for everyone. Taking the VC route is like walking through a one-way door - once you make that decision it sets you on a specific trajectory. That’s why more entrepreneurs are being thoughtful about the decision, and even opting out of raising mo…

The process of raising money is as much a mental one as it is a financial one. Before we start finding and pitching to investors or even structuring our deals, there’s a step we can’t skip, working on our mindset. There’s no sugar-coating it - getting funded is one of the hardest things you’ll do. You’ll get told your idea doesn’t doesn’t work. You…

The process of building a company, getting funded and bringing a product to market isn’t just data-driven. It’s gut-driven too. The numbers matter, but when you’re building a product without market acceptance, you have to trust your intuition and persevere when you’re told it won’t work. In many ways, taking an entrepreneurial risk is a lot like ta…

The best products disrupt tired categories and breathe new life into done-to-death ideas, but is it still possible?

By going premium, identifying an emerging …

Years later, people still ask about this story. So here it is. Pitching to a group of influential investors is a nerve-wracking experience, and that’s even before you have to do it on national TV!
