Stop trying to raise from the “top VCs” Every founder wants Sequoia, Accel, Lightspeed. But here’s the truth - at pre-seed, they probably won’t touch you. You’re better off: - Targeting micro VCs & angels who get your market ---Building proof with their capital ------Letting the big names come to you in the next round Fundraising is chess, not Tinder. The goal isn’t to get swiped right by the hottest profile. It’s to survive to the next move.

Micro VCs are like that senior dev who actually reviews your PRs properly, they give you real feedback and help you ship better code. Top VCs are like staff engineers who only show up for architecture reviews 👨‍💻

Absolutely agree-strategic fundraising and building strong early relationships can set the foundation for bigger opportunities later. It’s all about playing the long game.
