Managed Investor Outreach

We run your investor outreach. You close the round.

A fully managed email & LinkedIn campaign that puts your raise in front of 100,000+ active equity-crowdfunding investors — without you buying a list, warming a single inbox, or writing a single sequence.

The Fundraising Bottleneck
72%

of startups fail to raise enough capital.

Investor outreach is the #1 bottleneck for early-stage teams scaling a raise. And the usual "fix" — buying a list — makes things worse.

01

Founder time wasted

Outreach eats the hours you should be spending on product, pitches, and closes.

02

Cash burned, inbox ruined

Generic blasts from your own domain torch your sender reputation and your budget.

03

Wrong investors

Unqualified or uninterested contacts drain momentum and kill your narrative.

Why Most Campaigns Fail

Why your outreach doesn't work.

You've run email and LinkedIn outreach and it fell flat. It's almost always one of these five reasons. Here's what breaks, how we fix it, and why the fix actually converts.

01
The problem

You target the wrong people

Wrong audience, generic scraped lists, a bad database full of people who have never put money into a startup. No list converts if the names are wrong.
How we fix it
We send only to 100K active equity-crowdfunding investors who've each backed 3 to 50 deals, matched to your Ideal Investor Profile.
Why it works
Every inbox already buys Reg CF deals, so you're pitching proven buyers, not strangers.
02
The problem

Your email copy is boring, generic, or AI-robotic

Robotic, templated, AI-sounding emails that investors delete on sight. If it reads like a bot, it gets ignored.
How we fix it
Human-written, investor-specific copy and subject lines, A/B tested across the campaign and refined every day — never templated AI spam.
Why it works
Investors reply to messages that sound like a real founder — which is what lifts opens and replies.
03
The problem

Your deliverability is too low

Most of your sends land in spam. Open rates sit in the teens, clicks are almost zero — nobody ever sees the offer.
How we fix it
Isolated domains, warmed mailboxes, full SPF/DKIM/DMARC, and constant list hygiene that hold opens at 50%+ and push click rates past 10%.
Why it works
If the email never reaches the inbox, nothing else matters; we make sure it lands and gets clicked.
04
The problem

You send only one touch

One email and you give up. A single touch almost never converts a busy investor who skimmed past it.
How we fix it
A minimum 5-touch sequence per investor across email and LinkedIn, sequenced over time so you stay top of mind.
Why it works
Investors rarely act on the first message; most investments land on the 2nd or 3rd touch.
05
The problem

You never follow up on intent

Someone opens, clicks, or replies — and no one follows up, or it takes days. The interest goes cold and the investor moves on.
How we fix it
We watch opens, clicks, and replies in real time and follow up instantly, while the investor is still paying attention.
Why it works
Speed-to-lead wins. Reaching an engaged investor within minutes converts far more than a reply days later.

We fix all five at once. That's why our campaigns raise capital while DIY outreach stalls.

Common Questions

Things founders always ask.

Why don't you just sell us the investor list?
Founders who buy the list still have to set up domains, warm inboxes, write copy, run compliance, and send every message. Most never launch, or launch badly and torch their sending reputation. We stopped selling raw lists because the managed service is what actually gets startups funded.
Whose domains and email accounts do you send from?
Ours. We send from up to 60 dedicated secondary domains and 180 email accounts we own and warm up. Your primary corporate domain stays completely isolated — which protects your sender reputation and your brand if anything goes sideways.
Is it compliant?
Yes. Our workflows are built for CAN-SPAM, GDPR, and CCPA, with technical compliance on SPF, DKIM, DMARC, warm-up, throttling, and bounce monitoring. Every message includes opt-out handling, and we maintain global suppression and list cleaning across all campaigns.
Who is in the 100K+ database?
100K+ active investors who have previously invested on Wefunder, StartEngine, and Republic — plus angels, private investors, VC firms, and family offices. About 90% are US-based, ~10% UK / CA / AU / EU and worldwide. Most have invested 3 to 450+ times before.
What do I have to do?
Sign, pay, hand over your deck, offer, and brand assets, and approve the copy. After that, the campaign runs in the background while you focus on pitches, closes, and diligence. You get a daily report plus a live dashboard.
What if you miss the guarantees?
If we miss deliverability or engagement thresholds inside the 30-day window, we extend the service at no cost until we hit them. We also pause, diagnose, and relaunch on our clock if complaint rates spike — brand risk stays on our side.
How do I know it's working?
Every link carries campaign-specific UTM parameters, so you can attribute traffic, pre-launch signups, and investments to each email, segment, and send. We also match investors by name and email against your platform (Wefunder, StartEngine, Republic) to confirm overlap and conversions.

3 campaign slots open this month

Every week you wait, your raise costs $40K–$100K more.

That's the average delta across recent campaigns, per month of outreach. We can only run 3 new raises at a time because our domains, IPs, and accounts are finite. When the slots are gone this month, they're gone.

The math. A 30-day delay at a typical median client raise rate = ~$300K in capital you didn't close. Our fee is a fraction of that — and it's on us if we miss the numbers.

30-min call · No deck required · Signed NDA on request

On the call, we will:

  • Model your raise target against typical $100K–$300K monthly raise deltas
  • Show you live dashboards from campaigns closest to your stage
  • Confirm platform fit (Wefunder, StartEngine, Republic, or direct)
  • Map your 30-day campaign plan with deliverability thresholds in writing
  • Quote a fixed fee with our miss-the-number protection clause attached
