Fundraising Fundamentals for First-Time Founders

You have lifetime access to all course materials. Once you enroll, you can revisit the content whenever you need a refresher or are preparing for your next round.

Text-based learning lets you move at your own pace, easily reference specific sections, and copy templates directly. You can read during your commute, quickly search for specific topics, and take notes as you go. Plus, all our frameworks and templates are immediately actionable.

While some examples are US-focused, the core principles of investor psychology, pitch mechanics, and negotiation apply globally. We have students successfully raising rounds in 30+ countries.

This course focuses on early-stage fundraising (pre-seed to Series A). If you're raising B or later, our "Scaling & Growth Capital" course would be more appropriate.

No! Module 2 will teach you exactly how to build a pitch deck that works. We provide templates and real examples to guide you.

Most courses teach you to "spray and pray" or focus on perfecting your pitch. We teach you the mathematical realities, psychological dynamics, and systematic approach that actually gets deals closed. No fluff, no false promises—just what works.

While this is a free course without personalized coaching, you can share your situation in our community forums where experienced founders and mentors provide peer feedback.
