SUMMARY:Fricin' Decide - Should I look for investors?
DESCRIPTION:You keep hearing that you should raise capital. Build a pitch deck\, talk to investors\, get that check. \nIt sounds easy\, and it’s what everyone else is doing. So why are you hesitating? \nMaybe you’re daunted by the low probability of success (less than 1%). Or the time commitment (months). Or not knowing where to start (a real concern\, especially if you’ve never done it before). \nMaybe it’s because you recognize that this is a big decision. \nAnd you’re subconsciously asking yourself a much harder (and more valuable) question: \nIs this where should I bet the company’s most valuable resources – not just the money\, but everyone’s time\, energy and focus? \nDeep down\, you aren’t sure that raising capital is the right bet for you right now. \nThis workshop is designed to help you get clear about the funding question\, so you can commit to raise – or not – with confidence.
