#308: The Tactical Guide For Sponsors Looking To Raise Their First $1M, $5M, and $10M in Investor Capital
Manage episode 523387848 series 3302706
In this solo episode, we share an extremely tactical, milestone-based roadmap for sponsors who want to raise their first $1M, $5M, and eventually $10M+ in investor capital.
Axel explains why each stage requires a completely different set of activities, why brute-force outreach is the only reliable way to raise your first seven figures, and how inbound marketing, email lists, social content, referrals, and track record compounding begin to take over once your investor base matures.
This episode is a hands-on playbook for anyone planning to raise capital in 2026, from brand-new sponsors raising for their first deal to experienced operators looking to scale more intentionally.
Join us as we dive into:
- Why raising your first $1M is 100% outbound, brute-force communication
- The experience you must have before raising a single investor dollar
- Exactly what activities sponsors should focus on at the $1M → $5M stage
- The content, email, and marketing systems required to attract scalable inbound leads
- Why referrals and repeat investors become the engine behind raising $5M → $10M+
- How to set process-based goals to grow your capital-raising machine in 2026
