Why do you regret not doing this? I'm currently funding 100% my idea which has a few customers and I'm wondering if it will be better to raise funding once I can get more customers or to just keep going as is.
- iolothebard 12y agoRaise funds. I was just being a control freak. I also had another project going at the same time which made me significantly more money, so my time became more limited. If you have a few customers, make them super happy. Let them know you're going to be looking for investors so using them to help sell your business would help both you and them. I had the opportunity, I just let it go. Good luck!
