Here's my story as a solo founder... Currently: Solo founder of digital media company in SF Bay Area. Founder Experience: Founded/sold 1st company, founded/folded 2nd company, and worked for start-up for prominent founder. Fundraising Experience: Raised a seed round in the mid 6-figures with a deck, rough prototype and hodgepodge team. I think there is a general bias towards multi-founder teams bc of bandwidth, skill set, and emotional support. However the principles of fundraising remain the same for 1 or 2 founders - belief in the founder/story, big space, and social proof. I had a co-founder for my previous company and we weren't able to raise money, because we didn't have the basics of fundraising down. Take away: Fundraising is less about how many founders you have and more about knowing how to do it. I'm happy sharing more if anyone is interested.
