Some founders never get funded !! Here is my take
💀 Some startups will NEVER get funded And I can challenge you on this.
Too harsh? Let’s be real for once.
I’ve seen founders:
❌ Spend months making “sexy” pitch decks copied from Canva
❌ Show hockey-stick revenue graphs with ZERO paying customers
❌ Claim “we are the next unicorn” when they haven’t even validated their MVP
❌ Chase investors every week instead of chasing customers
❌ Inflate valuations because “AI” is written somewhere in their slides
These startups will die unfunded. Not because there’s no capital but because capital doesn’t chase mediocrity anymore.
-Here’s the savage reality no one tells you:
-Investors are drowning in options.
-LPs are asking tough questions.
Market conditions have shifted.
And the tolerance for bullshit is ZERO.
The old days of raising money on vibes, jargon, and storytelling are gone.
Now it’s about:
👉 Real traction
👉 Clean unit economics
👉 A founder who can defend every assumption
👉 A business model that doesn’t collapse outside Excel
So why am I saying this?
Because I’ve helped 30+ founders raise over $40M in equity and debt.
And I know EXACTLY why some get funded instantly… while others get ghosted forever.
Here’s the twist
If your startup looks unfundable today, it doesn’t mean it’s doomed.
It means you haven’t told your story right, haven’t aligned with investor psychology, and haven’t positioned your numbers the way smart investors need to see them.
That’s where I come in.
I can help you:
⚡ Cut the crap out of your deck
⚡ Build financials that don’t make VCs laugh behind your back
⚡ Reframe your story so investors lean in instead of tune out
⚡ And most importantly connect you with the RIGHT investors
So yes, I’m savage. Because I care.
Better to hear it from me today than from 100 investors ghosting you tomorrow.
