Remember
Define:1. Fundraising takes longer than you think2. There are periods of low investor activities (avoid late summer and winter holidays)3. A large amount of your funds may come from a few people. Find this super nodes and support them4. A large number of intros will lead nowhere and will waste your time.
An example: Heapsylon
Heapsylon is focused on delivering a family of body-sensing devices for the human foot. Wearable products that capture and communicate data such as activity type, body weight, eversion and in-footwear pressure to the user with a mobile dashboard.
• Soon crowdfunding on Indiegogo. It is on AngelList
