Factors that Influence Fund Raising Success
Company Controlled Factors 
(Slide 13  of 50)

• Timing and planning are important. The earlier management begins the process of fund raising, the greater the company’s flexibility and likelihood of a successful offering. Companies who wait until the last minute demonstrate a lack of foresight and reduce their options for fund raising. This often translates into no funding or funding at premium prices.
• Investors prefer management teams to single entrepreneurs. The strength of management is the single most important factor in fund raising success. The more complete the team is, the longer they have worked together and the stronger their relevant experience is the more likely the company will be to raise funds on reasonable terms.
