I didn't mean to sound dismissive. I think the early success is great. But I anticipate that the biggest question is going to be "will it scale?". Investors know that it's trickier than 1m+ bucks and some ambassadors. So if you can prove out that you have a model that works (and actually prove it to yourself) then you eliminate a big barrier in funding.
This is not a new model. The issue is it's VERY hard to scale. Proving it as much as possible before walking into a pitch will change the dynamic drastically.
You may also find that it does not scale as well as you hopes... or that managing college kids and relying on them to grow your business is not always reliable (that's a tough one).
