Finding investors for your startup involves several steps.
Here’s a guide to help you get started:
Remember, building relationships with investors takes time. Focus on establishing trust and demonstrating your startup’s potential to create value. Be prepared for rejections, as they're a part of the fundraising process. It's essential to keep refining your pitch based on feedback and learning from each interaction.

As an investor, I emphasize the importance of demonstrating traction or potential for significant growth. Investors are more likely to engage when they see evidence of market interest or scalable business models. Preparation and proof of concept are key.
