Founder & CEO: dream... • 5m

A good number of investors are ready to fund tech/AI based startups at pre revenue stage But When it comes to a consumer startup, most of them have been asking for revenue first! We know we have a wonderful product at hand but unable to raise preseed is hurting! Could someone guide me on this? I hope my rant is justified!

Any consumer startup needs to have a differentiating feature in place which is better than what conventional models in the same business follow. Until and unless the proof of concept is robust and convincing, it becomes very hard for investors to seriously consider it. The proof of concept usually is the revenue generated. If you have anything specific in mind, you can put it here for discussion. In the end , consumer based startups are delivering either a product or service to consumer. There are thousands of businesses catering to consumer needs from decades. Name an example and people can list 10s of companies doing 10 variations in the same sector. So, in my opion, the differentiating factor is vital and person who wants to put in money actively search for that, if not , they just want someone who are already popular and minting money from a common strategy.

Just as we look at India’s second-hand car market, we can similarly look at India’s second-hand mobile market. There is still a significant gap here, especially in Tier 3 and Tier 4 cities. While there are some startups in Tier 1 cities, no one is cu
