Introduction: The Startup Funding Challenge
When I started my first company, I had no idea how to raise money. I was based in Cleveland, Ohio - far from the startup hubs of Silicon Valley or New York City. But I knew I needed capital to turn my idea into reality. Maybe you're in a similar position right now - you have a great business concept, but you're not sure how to fund it, especially if you're not plugged into the traditional venture capital networks. That's why I wrote this book. I want to show you that it's absolutely possible to raise significant seed funding for your startup, even if you're not in a major tech hub. Through my own experience raising $1 million for my Cleveland-based startup, and interviews with over a dozen other entrepreneurs and investors, I've developed a playbook for securing early-stage capital - no matter where you're located. In the following chapters, I'll walk you through the key steps to make your startup attractive to investors and build the relationships you need to get funded. Let's get started on your journey to startup success.
