venturecapital

I’ve participated in crowdfunding since before that term existed. 

4 things must be addressed for it to breakout:

1. Highest potential startups avoid it

2. Perceived negatively by VCs

3. Hard to mobilize investor base post-investment

4. As much work as a typical raise


Thoughts on how these can be overcome?

VCs perceive it negatively because so much of their culture is based off of piggybacking other VCs diligence process. “If it’s good enough for them it’s good enough for us”. 

CF is a lot of work (sometimes more) but it is another avenue for capital raising. It is also expensive to bring in small checks
