You know what REALLY frustrates the Adamant team?

It's 10:02 AM on March 25. I'm writing this in a comfortable nook at a WeWork in the Mission District of SF...

Yesterday, I had a call with a founder who had just shutdown an unsuccessful fundraise. It was brutal to hear because I liked the founder!

Unfortunately, I meet exhausted founders who deserve to get funded but struggle like that all the time.

Usually, they're in the middle of a nerve-wracking, scattered process and they're looking for ways to save their fundraise (and company). More often than not, the struggle could've been avoided.

So what's the main frustration?

If only they found me sooner, I could have helped.

That's what drives me to keep providing powerful, actionable fundraising insights to as many founders as possible.

...and now I'm looking for your help to squash my frustrations.

So many of you have told me how much Fundraising Fieldnotes has helped you navigate this tough road.

We're launching a referral program to make it dead simple to share our work with other founders...and so I can easily thank you for your help!

Here's how the referral program works:

Share Fundraising Fieldnotes with founders, friends, or whoever you think can benefit. Share your personal link in the referral section at the bottom of this email.
When they subscribe, you'll get exclusive fundraising guides and unlock access to individualized feedback from the Adamant team
Let us know what prizes you'd like to see! We'll expand the program based on feedback :)

Starting today, you'll see a referral section at the bottom of all emails reminding you of your progress towards earning your rewards. Aaaand we might just be working on a special prize for whoever has the most referrals at the end of April! Can't wait to see who wins! 🥳
