How to Find Investments
Lately, I’ve been getting a lot of messages in my bot asking, “How can we find investors for a project at the zero stage?”
So, I decided to write this out so I don’t have to explain it from scratch every time.
Here’s the scenario:
You have a brilliant new project—maybe it’s a new tap app in Telegram (or anything else, even a shawarma stand on the corner).
Objective: Find investors who will fund it because right now you only have 1,000 Notcoins and big hopes of becoming a billionaire before the New Year!
Who do investors typically give money to?
1. Experienced entrepreneurs who have already built a successful business and are likely to do it again. They are trusted based on their track record.
2. Those who have a small, functioning business and have a plan to scale it multiple times with the help of investments. In this case, it’s usually clear to investors: we invest X amount of money, and we get 2-3-10-100X in return.
3. Those who have a great idea in a very hyped market (AI a year ago, tapal apps three months ago). The market is growing like crazy, everyone is making money, investors are losing their minds, and they want to join the party too.
If you don’t fit into any of the above categories, the only type of investors available to you is called FFF (Friends, Family, and Fools—your homework is to find who they are).
If you don’t even have this option, your best bet is to gain experience for the first category: join a fast-growing project and become a leader there. If it becomes well-known, this experience will also count when attracting money, especially if you’re part of a whole team like that. Simply put, a team of people who were leaders at, say, Facebook, might be able to secure funding for a project like TON or something similar.
So now you have a framework and a plan of action—I’m confident it will work out!
I love you all and wish you awesome investors/partners!
❤️❤️❤️
