The ideal candidates have some of the following attributes:

Traction

~ $100k+ in previous funding

Community

- A large email list or downloads 5k+ (great place to start notifying fans/followers/customers of the investment opportunity)

- Previous angels/friends and family that will help kick-off the campaign (due to regulations, we have to market each company equally. This means we don't advertise campaigns to our email list until they reach $45k as we had to set a milestone for when companies begin being blasted to our community)

- Founder with successful exits

- Founder was an early employee at major tech company (first 25 employee at google, meta, Microsoft, etc)
