Frequently asked

Q1

Does an e-commerce startup need an e-commerce-focused investor?

No. Most of the 6,206 are generalist funds with a handful of e-commerce deals; a focused thesis matters mainly at pre-seed and in capital-intensive sub-sectors. Look for the partner who led the fund's last e-commerce deal, not for the word in the fund's name.

Q2

How many investors do founders contact to get meetings?

Founders in our Raise Benchmarks reached 45 to 900 investors per round. self.space closed $530K from 10 investors after 126 first meetings. Besample reached 900 investors for 55 first meetings. E-commerce rounds are crowded on both sides, so targeting matters more than volume.

Q3

How do I get a warm intro to an e-commerce investor?

Fundraisly's Warm Intro maps your team's LinkedIn connections against every investor in this database and shows which of these funds and angels a colleague can introduce you to.
