Startup founders often blame the market. But in reality, most fail to raise because of poor investor targeting or unclear communication.

Mistake #1: Wrong Target Investor

Don’t pitch a late-stage VC if you're pre-revenue. Use filters on tools like FundMe.co.in to find relevant ones.

Mistake #2: No Traction

Investors don’t fund ideas. They fund momentum. Show:

• Signups

• Pilots

• Revenues

Mistake #3: Poor Cold Emails

Never use generic mass emails. Personalise every one.

Solution: Build an investor shortlist using FundMe.co.in, refine your pitch, and test outreach. You’ll see better results fast.
