I help founders raise oversubscribed rounds. Sample Q4 case study: - Startup failed to fundraise, one of the two founders left, and runway dipped below 5 months. - I started coaching them. - 3 months later we got a Series A term sheet at a >100x multiple. (Note: non-AI and no-capex startup) # My Story - Started with 0 network - Got coaching from: - One of the world’s best investors (Facebook, Airbnb, Cursor, Ramp, etc), - The man who raised the most money ever for a software company (recently beaten by Musk & Altman), and - An operator who raised close to $1B. - Raised an over-subscribed round on great terms with investors like:![[angels.jpg]] - Since then, I've helped founders across five countries raise tens of millions of dollars. I don't name clients publicly — I prefer to stay behind the scenes and let them take full credit for their rounds, but I'm happy to connect you with references privately if you'd like to explore working together. # Outcomes 1. Add $5 to $15M in valuation 2. Avoid expensive mistakes, like accepting standard clauses that when combined allow investors to fire you from your own company any time. 3. Significantly lower the risk of company death and associated stress 100% success rate so far # How I Help Some highlights from each stage of the process: - Preparation — make the company look hot - Study exact decks and emails that raised hundreds of millions - Roleplay calls with me and partner VCs - Sell the team by rewriting everyone's intro, bio, and linkedin - Roadshow — make the round hot - Map intro paths to the best possible investors worldwide - Review every call together - Background check predatory VCs, like those who stall due diligence until you're out of cash to renegotiate and halve the valuation - Negotiation — maximize the auction and negotiate good terms - Put just the right amount of pressure to get all terms sheets at the same time - Negotiate against “standard terms” your lawyers will push you to accept (they get more business from VCs than from you) - Smoothen legal due diligence so you don’t risk investors cancelling the round and leaving you naked # Contact I'm usually fully booked months in advance but I'll always try to help.
