Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

His product was so good it got someone fired: Elias Malm on Epiminds’ journey to finding PMF after a $6.6M Raise
Q: What were your biggest fundraising learnings and regrets?
The team regrets not doing enough mock calls early, learned to document questions, and realized the importance of practicing pitches with trusted mentors to shorten the path to a strong term sheet.
His product was so good it got someone fired: Elias Malm on Epiminds’ journey to finding PMF after a $6.6M Raise
Q: How did you structure an offer that felt insanely hard to say no to?
They proposed a three-month engagement with upfront payment, a strong guarantee, and a back-up KPI-based refund, which created strong incentives and minimized risk for clients.
His product was so good it got someone fired: Elias Malm on Epiminds’ journey to finding PMF after a $6.6M Raise
Q: Did you outsource hiring?
No, they initially did outsource but concluded it was a mistake and later built an in-house, scorecard-driven process to ensure hires align with clear outcomes.
EU Inc or Delaware C Corp? Bjol Frenkenberger on the decision that defined his $4.2M seed raise
Q: What are the three most important lessons you'd share with founders going through a fundraising sprint?
First, diversify your investor reach early and tailor your outreach to distinct tiers to improve hit rates. Second, don't underestimate the complexity of legal and stakeholder work, and consider a part-time CFO or legal help to handle the Delaware flip. Third, automate as much fundraising work as possible so you can stay focused on customers and selling, rather than getting bogged down in process.
EU Inc or Delaware C Corp? Bjol Frenkenberger on the decision that defined his $4.2M seed raise
Q: Why did you choose Delaware C Corp over EU Inc, and what were the main hurdles in moving the legal structure?
The decision hinged on the clarity and predictability of Delaware law for a cross-border company with multiple shareholders. EU Inc promised long-term simplifications, but required navigating a heavy, multi-country legal process. The Delaware flip involved extensive stakeholder alignment and managing expectations, which took months and required careful communication and sometimes external counsel.
