- Pick a Partner, not a Firm. When you raise money, you also get an investor. Make sure you get the partner that you believe will add value and be good to work with. Don’t allow the choice of partner to be made by the firm. Find out from other founders who at each firm is the good person to work with. Make sure they’re going to be with the firm for the long-term. Then approach them.
