To the founders that I didn't invest in: For most of you, it was the right call. You were too early. You were missing something. You were too good and/or past the stage where it makes sense to join our program. For some of you I missed a great opportunity. If that's the case, I'm sure you did just fine. The good ones always find a way. I'm sorry I missed riding alongside you. For those of you that I didn't invest in and it was the right decision, I hope you'll apply again on your next go around. Some of our best investments applied 2 or 3 times before they got it. Often I have to invest at a higher valuation because you deserve it and I wish I'd seen your potential earlier. Early stage startup investing is at least as much art (and luck) as science. Keep on building, keep on learning. Hope to see your application for cohort 10: https://lnkd.in/gv6n_k8E

Last month we tried something new in our Funding Mastermind community, an “Idea Swap” workshop where our founders shared their tactics on how to find investors with each other. It was a lively discussion as our founders were brimming with ideas! ‘Finding investors’ often feels like the number one challenge founders experience when trying to raise funding (although we actually find that it is easier than you think to find investors. The hard part is getting an investor to respond to your social media, email and phone calls!). So to help, we've shared some of the most practical and eye-opening tips that came out of the Idea Swap workshop to help you if you are actively looking to find investors for your startup. I’d love to get some more practical tips from my network - have you ‘found investors’ in any other ways that we haven't covered here? Please do share what's been successful for you! #startupfunding #findinginvestors #funding
