A big mistake that founders do when they raise venture capital is not taking a buffer. If you show me your financial projections and you say you are raising the same amount you are either naive, irresponsible or a first time founders. Take 15-20% or 4-5 months buffer when asking for capital, because plans always go wrong. Personally, I would ask this directly but most VCs will just decline without giving you this feedback. #venturecapital #raisingcapital

Why are VCs wasting founders time? I'm hearing a lot of stories of VCs and other investors wasting a lot of time doing due diligence on founders they have no intention of investing in. Here's what happens: The founder reaches out to the VC who takes the meeting. They then spend several months reviewing documents, meeting the team, etc. After a while, they declare that they won't be investing because the founder is too early stage for them. There are a ton of good reasons why a fund may decide that the founder isn't a good fit for them. But it should be obvious from within 30 secs of looking at the deck whether they are at the right stage. So why take up so much of the founder's time and effort? I know one founder who spent 9 months talking to a VC. Last week they turned round and said actually the business is too early stage. The whole process was a huge waste of time and effort. A founder's time is their most precious resource and I hate seeing it get squandered like this. What's going on?

🔍 Mastering Due Diligence in Venture Capital Ever wondered what goes on in the black box of LP due diligence? Here is a quick How-to guide that examines the process from the perspective of the LPs: https://buff.ly/3v61CR5 🚀 What’s the big challenge for LPs? * As an asset class, VC funds tend to be relatively risky and uncertain (especially first time teams with no financial visibility) * By design, long return horizons and unpredictable exit strategies add to the complexity. * In a crowded ecosystem of VCs, analysing the quality players can be extremely complex, especially for new LPs 💡 How does due diligence go? 1. It starts with the team 🧑🤝🧑Especially for new VCs, a strong team can overshadow an initially rocky investment strategy 2. And then the track record that either shows concrete achievements or market expertise 📈 3. Investment strategy to see where the LP money is being invested, and how 4. Skin in the game: GPs’ involvement in their founders demonstrates their commitment to their strategies and vision 🔗 Read the full article here: https://buff.ly/3v61CR5 👀 Wanna know more about the institutional side of things? Feel free to reach out to us to chat about the due diligence process on the institutional LP side and how you can prepare 🚀 #VentureCapital #DueDiligence #InvestmentStrategies #VCInsights #LPsGuide #MarketAnalysis #PitchMeFirst
