Do not proceed past any failed check.
1. Stage and traction defined?
Ask the user:
If they cannot state a specific traction number: "Investors fund traction, not potential. Before building an investor list, you need at least one measurable proof point. What is the most specific thing you can say about your results right now?"
2. Funding path confirmed for their archetype
Fundraising looks very different by business type. Read the right file before advising.
Read playbooks/biz-dev/fundraising/funding-mechanisms.md -- especially if the user is a service firm or trade business. VC is one path. It is not the only path.
| Your type | Relevant funding paths |
|---|---|
| SaaS, devtools, marketplace | VC, angels, SAFE, priced round |
| Agency, consulting, advisory | PE, SBA, revenue-based financing |
| Trade businesses | SBA, equipment financing, PE roll-up |
| Hardware, DTC | Strategic, VC with hardware thesis, debt |
Read playbooks/biz-dev/fundraising/traction-by-archetype.md -- what traction means for your archetype at each stage.
Read playbooks/biz-dev/fundraising/round-sizing.md -- SAFE vs. convertible note vs. priced round, and how much to raise at each stage.
If the user is pursuing VC for a business type where it is not the optimal path, name it clearly before proceeding.
3. Which part do they need?
Ask which stage they are working on:
Do not build a full 4-stage plan if they only need one stage. Route directly.
Run the relevant stage(s). If they are starting from zero, run all four in order.
Define the investor ICP -- the profile of an investor who is the right fit for this raise:
Categorize into three tiers:
| Tier | Count | Priority |
|---|---|---|
| Tier 1 | 10-20 | Ideal fit, warm intro required to approach |
| Tier 2 | 30-50 | Good fit, warm or cold both viable |
| Tier 3 | 50-100 | Possible fit, cold only |
Sources for building the list: Crunchbase, AngelList, LinkedIn (portfolio companies of target funds), Axios Pro Rata, fund websites.
Do not send to Tier 3 until Tier 1 and 2 are active.
For warm intros (Tier 1 and 2):
Forward blurb structure:
For cold outreach (Tier 2 and 3):
Use playbooks/biz-dev/fundraising/templates/investor-outreach.md.
Rules:
Walk through the 10-slide deck structure:
| Slide | Content |
|---|---|
| 1. Cover | Company name, one-liner, date |
| 2. Problem | Specific scenario -- a story, not a statistic |
| 3. Solution | What you built, one sentence |
| 4. Why now | Market timing argument -- what changed that makes this the right moment |
| 5. Traction | Most compelling numbers first |
| 6. Product | Screenshots or demo, not diagrams |
| 7. Business model | How you make money -- unit economics if available |
| 8. Market size | Bottom-up logic, not TAM from a report |
| 9. Team | The 2-3 things that make you the right people for this specific problem |
| 10. The ask | Amount, use of funds, milestones this raise gets you to |
Also help with the verbal narrative: 2 minutes max, covers why you, why this market, why now.
Pitch quality gates before taking meetings:
After every meeting, send a follow-up within 24 hours. Use playbooks/biz-dev/fundraising/templates/follow-up.md.
Pipeline management rules:
When an investor passes: send a feedback request within 48 hours. Their answer is the product roadmap.
When closing: state the close timeline clearly. "We are targeting to close this round by [date]. Current commitments are [amount]. We have space for [X] more investors at this stage."
Before this session ends:
1. Investor list is tiered?
Confirm Tier 1, 2, and 3 are defined with clear criteria. Tier 1 should require a warm intro -- if everything is cold, the target list is probably too broad.
2. Outreach passes the traction-first check?
Read the first sentence of the outreach message. Does it lead with a traction metric or a vision statement? If it starts with vision, rewrite.
3. Pitch deck structure is complete?
Confirm all 10 slides exist and the quality gates from Stage 3 pass.
4. CRM tracking is set?
Confirm every active investor has a next action and a next contact date. No investor in active conversations should have a blank next action field.
5. Raise timeline is stated?
Confirm they have a close target date and know the current commitments. Fundraises without deadlines drift.
