Too Long; Didn't Read

Founder of Foundersuite.com: fundraising is brutally hard, you're going to get rejected constantly. Rejection is the norm (not the exception). Make sure your "funnel" or list of potential investors is sufficiently large (2-300 for seed/pre-seed, 30-50 for Series A/B) No one is going to raise the capital for you. "Entitled" founders don't get funded. It's 100% your duty to move it forward. Fundraising is driven by "sense, if a deal has heat or if it's turning stale"
