Hi,
We are working on a startup called Tail Treat, focused on the pet industry. Recently, we applied to Rainmatter seeking funding for our venture. While exploring the Rainmatter website, I came across the community and felt it would be the right platform to address some questions that have been on my mind for a while.
Given the high volume of startups seeking funding, those with references might have better opportunities to connect with resourceful individuals.
- How can someone without a network effectively pitch their idea to influential or resourceful individuals?
Additionally, I have another question:
- For individuals with limited resources who are managing a job alongside their startup, securing funding can be particularly challenging. Building a profitable business takes time, and such individuals are often left with no choice but to juggle both. What is the best approach for them to secure funding and eventually transition to working full-time on their startup?
Looking forward to insights from the community!
