Welcome to the new Fundability blog: Deal Stage– the voice of our company and a source of fresh insight about capital fundraising and early stage investing.  We are entrepreneurs and investors who launched Fundability to accelerate funding by simplifying real-time communication between companies and investors. The money hunt is a high stakes game without written rules  

• • Last year angel investors and VCs invested more than $55,000,000,000 in 50,000+ companies.
  • Another 350,000 companies tried but failed to raise a dime.
  • Only 12.5% of companies were successful in raising capital last year!
    

A company’s “fundability” is in the eye of the investor and you can’t find it solely in a formula or a checklist. This stuff is not for the faint of heart, it’s full of risk and is constantly changing - which is exactly why we love it.

Deal Stage allows an open dialogue among our growing community – and the hard working Fundability team. We plan to: 

• • Discuss the ways that deals are getting done.
  • Highlight how subscribers have accelerated their fundraising  efforts - including our own!
  • Keep you informed and solicit feedback on our product roadmap.
  • Give you a heads-up on any site upgrades and enhancements.
    

We encourage your feedback.  Tell us about your experiences and share your opinions.

Subscribe to Deal Stage via the RSS feed or by e-mail and we’ll let you know of any new posts.

You’ll hear from Fundability Team members (Sales, Marketing, Product, Operations) and other guest writers.  We also would like to add Fundability users to our blogroll. Tell us about your blog. If relevant, we’re happy to let the Fundability Community know about it!
