From The Archive: Raising $6M From Hungry Investors - 1209 - RMR

So it's got us kinda thinking about, you know, how do we-

Well, let me just pause you right there-

Yeah, yeah

... 'cause obviously any entrepreneur is like, "Yeah, yeah, that's in the past.

Let's move around the next problem." But that's obviously incredible, right? So you, you were at a place where you felt like you exhausted your list.

You had some buy-in.

You had some people that were gonna remember your name.

Some of them had the ability to invest with you, some did.

But then you're able to kind of execute, obviously, the Raise Masters playbook, put your own spin on it.

I know that you've been able to build a business exactly like the one that we all want you to have, like on the raisingcapital.com team.

And then also you made some joint pen- joint venture relationships along the way, co-GP partners, partner with other people.

Just, it's incredible.

But what happens when you do this is that new constraints come up.

So, like, for some of you listening to this, the capital is the number one constraint.

Cory has solved that, which is awesome.

And it's always something you wanna work on.

You always want more money.

That's the reason this space is so interesting.

But, like, to a large degree, that's no longer the constraint in your business.

So now you're kinda looking at, you're doing your weekly check-ins, and you're like, "Wait a minute.

We used to do all these calls with investors.

They're all hungry.

They're as hungry as they're gonna be, and they're just getting a little bit agitated.

Like, 'I gotta put some money to work.

If I don't put it with you, I'm gonna put it with someone else.'" What's the next constraint that you uncovered in your business?
