Description

The founder and CEO of one of Silicon Valley’s most successful companies pulls back the curtain on the startup fundraising process in this essential playbook. Mastering the art of fundraising is key to every new company’s success. But the process itself is too often shrouded in mystery. From networking and building supportive relationships to crafting the perfect pitch and knowing when to finalize a deal—it can be a confusing and complex web. Opening a fundraising round is one of the most daunting moments in the lifecycle of a young startup. But even as tech insiders trade tips, too many first-time founders are left in the dark or sorting through conflicting advice. Ryan Breslow’s definitive guide to startup fundraising provides overdue, much needed clarity. Drawing on years of experience at the industry’s highest levels, he dispels common misconceptions and distills essential wisdom on every facet of the process. This compelling, accessible, and candid primer is a must-read for first-time founders and startup veterans alike. They will find much to learn from Breslow’s indispensable guide to the nuts and bolts of successful fundraising. Read more

    • A very skewed and narrow view of the world
I’m really not sure why or how this has such good reviews. If you are a founder, you are infinitely better off Venture Deals or Secrets of Sand Hill Road instead of this. The author has such a skewed and privileged point of view on fundraising. If you are not in the Bay Area at a top quartile company, this book is not for you and you may in fact be worse off after reading this. It is simply poor advice to suggest all early stage founders should NEVER do any deal that isn’t a SAFE note, should NEVER take money from an seed investor who wants a board seat, and should all target the same valuation. The author offers no methodologies behind these conclusions and no alternatives. Maybe this is fine advice for 1% of startups out there, but it’s pretty bad advice for everyone else. ... show more

    • Little pearls of wisdom
Review Image by V. agarwal V. agarwal
What strikes you first when you hold the book is how thin it is. What wisdom could such a small book impart, you may wonder. You will be surprised. The first thing you notice about the book is that it comes from a place of authenticity and humility. First advice Ryan gives is - you have to let your authentic self shine and not take anything at face value including the advice given by him. The second thing that struck me was the focus on building relationship. Every action and outcome during the fundraising affects the relationships with the investors. Once the book sets up the foundation, it gets right into the details. The book has very practical tips on how to build the momentum, how to find prospects and most importantly which people to say no to. The book is targeted towards seed to early stage founders but some of the tips could be used by the later stage founder also (however, you should have become good at funds raising by now.) If you are on the fence of buying the book, consider the investment you are putting in it. Unlike most books that make you spend 6 hours reading a book for what could be conveyed in 10 minutes, this book will take hardly 30 minutes to finish and you can get back to specific chapter when you need to. Overall considering the ROIC, I found this book to be very useful. ... show more

    • I didn’t know Amazon sold 40-page booklets.
When buying a book, I’m looking for structure, research, fundamentals. This is a recollection of tactics and opinions that has not much research or first principles behind. Worthy of a nice long form blog post, not really a book.

    • This book has made me more money than the sum total of every book I've ever read
This will make you an order of magnitude better fundraiser, especially if you run a pre-seed/stage stage business. FULL STOP! Imagine spending $11 on a book and walking away with millions in value? Sounds crazy right.... well Ryan and his book "fundraising" have done the impossible by doing just that How do I know this book is legit? I've raised $6+ million for my company off the back of this advice! ... show more

    • A short but definitely useful guide to fundraising
It is a good guide to fundraising, but it assumes that you can easily build a network of investors. It’s not so easy if you’re not in silicone valley or USA. Probably Ryan doesn’t know how to build it the other way and it wasn’t hard for him to do it, but for a lot of other people this can look like an impossible task. Otherwise, a good guide for fundraising. ... show more

This book it fantastic and cuts to the core of the fundraising experience. Expect to read it many times and to take away different things with each read.

There is nothing quite like learning all the things you didn’t know you didn’t know, in time for them to be useful. Grab the book and get reading! It helps you into the right mindset for your business’ sake!
