What are the best ways to manage relationships with VC contacts prior to fundraising?

Asked 11 months ago, Edited 1 month ago by in Money

Even if your product or business plan isn't quite there yet, how do you foster, manage and build potential relationships with VCs before you disclose your venture?

I heard someone ask this question at a roundtable the other day, so I'll repeat the answer that was given by a current Launchpad partner.

Go through your personal network on linkedin and see who is connected, even remotely, to anyone in a VC or angel group. Get coffee, catch up, and ask for the introduction down the line. Repeat as necessary over a series of months until you know 1+ person inside each angel/VC group you're targeting.

And definitely target. Some only invest in certain kinds of companies. You should figure out if you're a match on this level before starting the long networking process.

Not super easy or helpful, I know, but it's the boiled down version of the advice that was given by an Angel partner himself.
