Whatever the stage of your startup, whatever your goals, whatever your valuation, one thing remains the same. You need to create a fundraising strategy.

A fundraising strategy outlines, simply put, when, how much and how you plan to go about raising funds. A fundraising strategy is ideally a written document. The very process of drafting this document should invite important conversations and encourage a valuable thinking process.

Your fundraising strategic plan needs reliable groundwork in order to properly position you in front of the right people.
