How I Raised Over $2M for My Startup
My name is Arend Richard, and I recently raised just over $2,000,000 in capital for my startup business, Cirrus. I raised all the capital from Angel Investors, which can seem to be the toughest type of investor to find.
Whether you’re looking for tips on raising capital from angels, VCs, family offices, or anything else, the points in this video will help you gain some firsthand perspective.
Quick background on me and my raise: I’m opening a new experience concept called “Cirrus,” which is opening in just a few months in Denver.
Here are the tips and lessons I learned from raising capital:

    Great video, Arend. I like how you approached the qualitative and psychological aspects of the raise. Some standard gems in here as well, but you presented them with passion and empathy towards your audience of fellow entrepreneurs who are struggling. My favorite topic is traction, and it can certainly mean a lot of different things, but I think bringing it back to pre-opening revenues for this particular type of project is brilliant because it was unexpected. Whoo raises money from future customers for a business that isn't open yet? (Besides electric car companies) It's like kickstarter, without the kickstarter. Bravo.

    Owned my 2022 Stinger GT here in Australia for a few years now. Literally, the only downside I could try to come up with is the fuel economy. Literally every other aspect of this car is well above its price point. Another point worth noting, HUD units in this car and others don't work great if you drive with polarised sunglasses. I never use the HUD so if you drive with polarised sunnies, don't let the HUD become a deal breaker.

    We bought a 2022 GT1 for my wife. She loves it. I get to drive it once in a while and I get it, it is wonderful. If I ever had to get rid of my TrackHawk, I would buy another Stinger. Only thing I don’t get on the Stinger is the toggle radio changing switch..push it up, the stations go down, push it down and the station selection goes up. Only thing I do not like. Great car.
