We raised over $300K for OutreachGenius from investors who only met us on Zoom.

Here’s what made them say yes 👇

1. We told a story worth believing

Fundraising is storytelling

We had to blend our vision, the opportunity and why we are the right team into a story that felt real

We practiced it relentlessly, until the conviction in our voice matched the belief in our hearts

We drank our own Kool-Aid, and investors felt it

2. We came with credibility

We didn’t just sell the dream, we showed proof

We already had revenue and strong paid pilots running

And with years of experience in home services myself, we understood the problem we are solving inside out

We could also communicate the nuance that only someone deep in the trenches could understand

That insight gave us an edge, and made the opportunity feel real
