2025 Resolution: Secure Meaningful Investor Introductions for Your Startup

Will you be seeking investor introductions for your startup in 2025?

Top VC funds operate in the 98% rejection rate zone.

Let’s avoid the pitfalls of wasting time and money without achieving results.

If you are looking for investor introductions, you have to be READY.

What does it mean to be READY?

Being READY means you need to be able to tell a credible story to defend a high velocity revenue growth investment thesis.

Investors are looking for high velocity revenue growth.

FUNDABLE means a convincing investment thesis to go from 0 to $100M in 5-7 years is READY.

Typically, this means, you triple revenues during the first 3 years, and double revenues year 4 onwards.

If you have bootstrapped and taken longer to get to $1M or $5M, that’s fine. But when VCs enter the timeline, you have to get to $100M in 7 years..

Essentially, high velocity growth is the name of the game for venture financing.
