Dear friend,
In my interactions with many entrepreneurs and startups, the most common question I have heard is: “How can I get money to start a business?”
I too have “struggled” through encounters with too many “delusional” startups, too many entrepreneurs with “illusions,” and too many “terrible” fundraising pitches that not only I but many other investors and listeners had to make an effort to endure. At times, I felt discouraged by the abilities of most startups in Vietnam today and somewhat lost faith in the younger generation…
But I changed my thinking. I understood that every giant was once a child, every great person was once a beginner, and every great company once started in a garage. The same goes for me: I too once had to rise from the most basic beginnings. So I understand that if even I become discouraged and avoid young people who are “on fire” with ideas and want to raise funds to start a business, that would go against my “conscience.”
So I want to do something for the community. That is why I will hold a sharing/training session on
“HOW TO RAISE $1.000.000 – HOW TO RAISE $1.000.000”
If I spoke on this topic, would you want to attend? Are you tired of courses that merely ‘pump you up’ ? Are you weary of listening to people who have not accomplished things themselves advising you?
Honestly, even I have not managed it. My most successful fundraising round was $700.000. Afterward, I never needed to raise that much in a single round again. Adding all my fundraising rounds together would probably reach that figure too, but not in just 1 round.
As Forbes has just honored me among Asia's outstanding influential people (30 Under 30 Asia), I feel even more strongly that I must work, contribute, and give more to thank life. So I am offering this program completely free. I am not sure when I will organize a 2nd program. If I do, my teammates insist I should no longer make it free. They say, ‘Charging a fee brings the truly suitable participants who really want to act, and importantly, free things are often not appreciated.’
They have a point. I respect them, too. So I do not yet know what will happen with the 2nd program, but I choose to trust you and your commitment, so I will still run the first program free of charge (though I make no promises in advance about the 2nd).
