You run the company.
We run the round.
Great companies spend months raising and come out with less than they went in with. The round drags, the roadmap slips, and what made you fundable decays.
The fix is a case that gets governed and run by someone whose only job that quarter is your raise.
That is the raise we make possible.
Fundraising done properly is a full-time job.
The deck, the meetings, the room full of nods. And most good companies can get there, because a business with real traction is not hard to make interesting at first glance. Then the meeting ends, and the part that actually decides the round begins. A soft yes is not a commitment. It's the start of the hardest stretch of the raise, and it's the stretch that's hard to prepare for.
Because closing is a different job than pitching. It's reading which investors are live and which are politely stalling. Answering the objection behind the objection. It's specialized, relentless, and it can run for months, right when the company needs you the most. So the interest you earned in the room decays before it ever becomes capital. That is where rounds die.
Money moves at the speed of whoever refuses to let the round drift.
Decades of capital markets execution, in one team.
A team that's with you, from the preparation to wired capital.
An investment case that holds up under real institutional scrutiny. Your deck stops collapsing at IC and starts winning.
Investors matched to your exact mandate. Every conversation has a real chance of closing, not just a generic, polite pass.
Warm introductions, sequenced follow-ups, and forward movement without your direct involvement.
Active management of every commitment and deadline, every decision. Interest converts to wired capital.
What changes when the raise is off your desk.
If you've raised before, you know these moments. This is what they look like with Flusso running the round.
01
The research, the follow-ups, the scheduling, the chasing. Off your desk in week one. You run the company while the raise runs anyway. Your team gets their CEO back.
02
Forty conversations, each at a different stage, each with its own next step. That state used to live in your head, rent-free at 2am. Now it lives in a system. Your focus goes back to the company.
03
A raise never taxes just the founder. It pulls in the CFO, the numbers, the deck, whoever got drafted. That entire function now exists outside the company, fully staffed. Everyone goes back to their actual job.
04
Investor mode, operator mode, back again, six times a day. That gear change is where strategy work goes to die. Now the raise runs in one lane and the company runs in yours. You get whole days back, not just hours.
05
A founder chasing investors reads as need. A firm running a process around your round reads as demand. Same company, opposite signal, and investors price the difference.
06
The materials are ready, the room is briefed, the follow-up is already moving. Everything the raise needs from you fits in the meetings themselves. The rest is handled, all of it. You bring the story. We bring everything else.
On both sides of the term sheet.
The senior team works your raise directly, every week.
Involved in $200M+ in transactions. Active investor relationships on all continents.
Over four decades on Wall Street, beginning at Salomon Brothers. $1B+ personally raised.
25 years in US tech, early at Yelp, LinkedIn, and Skype. Active VC at K2X Capital.
Before your deal reaches an inbox.
We diligence before any investor does. If the case doesn't clear our bar, it doesn't go out. Our access to capital depends on what we send, and we protect it.
Not just for the first meeting. For the room where deals actually die. We pressure-test the numbers, the claims, and the objections before the market does.
We don't work a list. We match your deal against live mandates and put it in front of investors with a reason to look. Every conversation on the calendar is there because it can close.
You're running the company while professionals run the round. Investors read that as efficiency, and as protection: the business their capital is buying isn't stalled by the raise.
Most companies that approach us never go to market with us. Investors know what that means. Your deal inherits it the moment we send it.
This process is selective. Intentionally.
→ Raising $3M or more, on a defined timeline
→ Companies with real traction and numbers that back the story
→ Founders who have raised before and know what the process looks like
→ Operators who buy execution the way they buy anything else: for the return
→ Companies that treat investor attention as capital, spent once, spent prepared
We take on a small number of raises. Our reputation with investors depends on every deal we send being real and vetted.
Six commitments. In writing.
Some founders who come to us have worked with an advisor before. They signed, paid, and watched the updates get thinner every week. That's not how we operate. This is the section that makes that impossible.
Every introduction is to a verified-fit investor with confirmed interest. Warm, carried, with context. Never a list of names to work yourself.
Thirty minutes, same slot every week, written agenda the day before. Pipeline, live conversations, and what happens next. A working session, not a check-in.
Every investor contacted, every response, every meeting booked, in one written report. You never wonder where the raise stands, because it's in front of you.
When the raise needs an answer, you get one that day, on the channels you already use. Decisions in flight don't wait for next week's call.
Objections surface, framings convert or fall flat, and the case is refined in real time. Week eight's pitch is stronger than week one's.
Cumulative outreach, pipeline progression, and what we're adjusting for the month ahead. The raise compounds instead of drifting.
Aligned, and simple.
- → Monthly retainer, paid upfront, month by month. No minimum term.
- → Success fee on capital raised, payable only on successful receipt of capital from investors we introduced or materially engaged.
- → No equity. No upfront placement fee.
credited back
→
Why not success-only? You don't pay an attorney only when they win, or a surgeon only when the operation succeeds. Asking us to absorb 100% of the downside risk on variables we don't control isn't a fee structure. It's a full transfer of risk.
From signature to market.
01. Onboarding questionnaire (2 to 4 hrs)
Everything we need to understand the business the way an investment committee will. Product, numbers, market, cap table, etc.
02. Data room access (5 min)
Share access to what exists today. We work through the materials and map what's missing against what investors will ask for.
03. Strategy call (1 hr)
The full picture on one call. Positioning, target investor profile, timeline, and a single prioritized list of what gets built before launch.
04. Finalizing the assets (Days to 2 weeks)
Deck, data room, and one-pager and other materials built to distribution standard. This is where most of the time lives usually.
05. Pitch preparation (2 to 3 hrs)
The pitch, pressure-tested. We run you through the questions investors will actually ask until the answers land.
06. Campaign launch (1 hr)
Final alignment on strategy and sequencing. Then the case goes to market and the weekly cadence begins.
~1 to 3 weeks. Timelines depend on your team's responsiveness.
The raise closed.
The company kept moving.
