If you are here, you probably want to learn about startups and fundraising.
You also probably know I launched my tech company hypeal.com and raised $200,000 with an idea on paper on revolutionizing digital assets for brands & creators.
On monday 10 AM ET I’ll be launching my own HYPE, dedicated to this community

I launched litotravel.com in 2021, got into Forbes 30 under 30 retail and sold it in 2023.
I wrote a guide about it! Check it out
PS: this is a bootstrapped business with my savings and no investors - some say even more learnings!
Less is more!
Most people attention span is nowadays short - that counts for VCs as well.
Build a one-pager for warm intros or cold outreach attachment on LinkedIn.

I’ve seen tons of templates on how to build a financial model.
The truth?
They rarely apply to you.
You have from start from scratch beacuse your business is unique.
If not unique, it will hardly be interesting for early stage VCs.
My Learnings (for VCs, not bootstrapping):
Focus on hypergrowth, not profitability until at least Series A
Have recurring revenue
Have a monthly P&L with revenue, costs, EBITDA + Your Key growth KPIs
Have a key KPI, a large number to grow exponentially (in my case it is revenue generated from selling branded digital assets)
Add key milestones to justify monthly growth changes
Use USD vs your local currency as the VC market is now global
Upgrade to HYPES+ for $0 for the first 14 days to receive mine.
VC: At which valuation are you raising?
Founder: right… $15M?
Don’t make this mistake. Have a simulation of your round, with share ownership and dilution forecasts of current and future investors.
