MenuAngel + VC Fundraising (Raised $125 Million and Have Done 26 Angel Investments)
Created 8 years ago in Funding / Venture Capital
As both an entrepreneur and investor I understand the psychology that happens on both sides of the table.
I have raised $125 million dollars from angels, VCs, and strategic investors for my company, Life360. I have also done 26 angel investments of my own.
Funds/investors I have raised from include: 500 Startups, Bessemer Venture Partners, Founders Fund, BMW, Verizon, ADT, DCM, Facebook, Samsung, dozens of angels, and many others.
Some of my personal deals where I have been either an investor or advisor include: Tile, Credible, Ring, Automatic, Airdog, Honk, and others.
Many people are scheduling my time with the hope I will connect them to angel/VC investors. Here are some notes on this topic:
-The majority of companies I talk to here I don't feel comfortable introducing to my network.
-I either need to be an expert in your space or be a passionate user of your product to feel comfortable introducing you to people I know.
.
-I have only give ~10 companies I have met through Clarity intros, and I personally invested in just one.
While I am happy to give any company my time if I think I can be useful, please do not book me with the expectation that I will be able to intro you to investors.

I really appreciate Chris sharing his thoughts on GTM for my mobile app and more specifically the tradeoffs of working with the cellular carriers that are now typically utilizing a B2B2C model. Our dialog was also helpful in highlighting several boxes that I will need to make sure to check when working my efforts at angel /SEED fundraising. Great call – enjoyed the conversation and his insights!
Source: Clarity Randy Cunningham Jan 8, 2021Chris looked through my pitchdeck and gave me feedback on what I could strip out, what were red flags and what I need to work on in order to qualify for funding. I'll be applying to accelerators and focusing on the product from now on. If you've read about his journey, Chris is a super helpful and inspiring entrepreneur and has 12 years of exp under his belt.
