Fundraising Strategies for Startups & Small Businesses

FUND RAISING STRATEGY FOR STARTUPS

**Note: This Session is also a part of the Entrepreneur Development Program (EDP-2022). For those who registered for the complete EDP-2022 Program, this session is free.

SESSION DETAILS:
Any entrepreneur wishing to set up a business/startup and make it successful needs to take care of 3 things i.e., Product, Distribution and Funding. They will have a brilliant idea which will become the product and they may have found the sweet spot at the intersection of creating value for customers and profitability by distribution. But to really get the startup off the ground, you need capital. And to attain capital, you need to fundraise without which the business will just stagnate and lose track.

Majority of the entrepreneurs start their business journey with a small capital of their own and then start looking to raise funds to grow the business. Fundraising is a complicated affair and needs a lot of strategy and planning.

Fundraising can be a lonely, anxiety-ridden, and frustrating process. An entrepreneur needs to prepare to handle a lot of rejections. The time will seem to be dragging on and whenever a potential investor says ‘let’s keep in touch’ it will weigh heavy on you.

Most of the entrepreneurs assume that their business idea will be appealing to the investors, and they tend to overlook the efforts and complication involved in raising funds. This leads to many businesses timing the funding wrong and coming to a standstill due to lack of funds.

This session will give you deep insights into how to come up with an appropriate fund raise strategy for your business. It will help you understand the why, who, how much, when and how for a fundraise strategy.
