The Truth

Fundraising Sucks!

A founder’s time, energy, and money are their most precious resources. They have far better things to do than spend months wandering down ‘Investor Lane’ shaking a cup for money. Every minute fundraising is a minute stolen from building their dream company.

Founders more than deserve a better, more efficient way to fundraise.

Our Process

How it Works

Curate

Each month we review the top emerging brands raising from all categories. After careful due-diligence, we tease out the best.

EXPERIENCE

We then send their products and decks to our investors so they can experience and learn about the brands firsthand.

CONNECT

Finally, we connect the founders with the investors interested in their brand. From there, it’s up to them to close a deal.

“Because of FirstLook, NuSkool secured a partnership with Tim Tebow as an Investor and CMO, as well as our first strategic VC check. Truly Shark Tank in a box, thank you, Brian and FirstLook!”

Joe Christensen – Cofounder – Nuskool

“FirstLook is a champion of the consumer founder. Connecting with Brian was refreshing, he over indexes in his efforts to add real value to founders and makes well vetted introductions to engaged investors. And once a part of the Firstlook community, always a part of the FirstLook community.”

Terry Whtie – Founder – WOLACO

“FirstLook provided access to an incredible network of high-caliber investors, opening up so many doors for us. Providing product is such a low lit, and all the on-going perks and access we’ve received since going through the boxes has been invaluable as well. Every founder should be signing up for FirstLook; this is a no brainer.”

Elena Guberman – Co-founder / CEO – tbh

“FirstLook is a legitimate! Brian does what he says and more. I was introduced to many VCs and received investment for my Bridge Round. I was also introduced to people who have changed the trajectory of my company and remain close partners. It’s an A+ networking experience!”

Douglas Giampapa – Founder – HealthyCell

“Being selected to the FirstLook box was an incredible opportunity for Moment and led to several conversations with leading investors and advisors, some of whom subsequently invested. The experience was super valuable for a young brand like us.”

Aisha Cottani – Founder – Moment

“FirstLook is a great resource, we can’t recommend them enough! We’ve met two of our incredible partners through them, and would highly recommend to anyone in their early fundraising days.”

Stephanie Hon – Founder – Cadence
