In the frothy zero-interest-rate days of 2020/2021, many early-stage companies raised seed through series A rounds, often opting for party rounds with no meaningful lead investor.
It's more important than ever to have someone on your cap table (and your board) who is deeply committed to your company over the long term.
Choosing the right first investor board member is crucial for the long-term success of your startup, providing immense value from emotional support to strategic guidance.
The dynamic between founder and board can be challenging, but the right first outside board member can help in future capital raising, hiring, selling, and so much more.
