Fundraising Mistakes That Cost Founders Weeks - or the Whole Round Fundraising delays rarely come from investor feedback. They come from founder missteps. Here are the 3 mistakes I see again and again: 🔻 Chasing too many investors at once No prioritization = no focus. Pick 10-12 aligned targets and go deep. 🔻 Sending decks too early If your narrative isn’t crisp yet, all a deck does is confuse or dilute interest. 🔻 No follow-up rhythm Some founders go silent after sending. Others follow up every 48 hours. Neither works. Use a clean tracker. Follow up weekly. Fundraising is a system, not a one-shot ask. Sloppy process kills momentum - and investors can smell it.

Your follow-up list should look empty. Not “I’ll check later.” Not “Waiting for reply.” Not “Will follow up next week.” Empty. Clean. Done. If your CRM still has follow-ups pending, you are not in sales. You are in wishful thinking. Sales is not

The 'Soft Pass' is the most dangerous signal in fundraising. When a VC says: 'Let's keep in touch' or 'Come back when you have X ARR'. They aren't being polite. They are preserving optionality. Analytically, a 'Maybe' is worse than a 'No'. • A 'No
