Produced by Foundersuite (www.foundersuite.com), "How I Raised It" goes behind the scenes with startup founders and investors who have raised capital. This episode is with Miso Robotics (https://misorobotics.com) makers of robotic arms for the food service industry - for example, to run the french fry or chicken wing fryer. In this episode, Mike talks why the company raised its Series A and Series B rounds from traditional VCs, then changed gears and switched to Crowdfunding for its C, D, and E rounds. We talk about the advantages and challenges of raising large amounts via crowdfunding, how to leverage a digital marketing team to drive potential CF backers, the cost to acquire a CF investor, and much more. Miso has raised $75MM in crowdfunding to date and recently closed its Series E round. The company has over 25,000 shareholders.

Behind every funded startup is a story, often untold, of how the money actually came together. How I Raised It pulls back the curtain on that exact process. Each episode is a direct conversation with a founder who has successfully navigated the capital raise, digging into the granular details that most post-mortems gloss over. You’ll hear about the specific strategies that worked, the unexpected hurdles, and the moments that nearly derailed the entire effort. This isn't about generic advice; it's a replay of real negotiations, investor rejections turned into commitments, and the personal resilience required to close a round. Produced by Foundersuite.com, a company that builds software used by startups to raise capital, the podcast benefits from an insider's view of the fundraising landscape. The discussions are grounded in the messy reality of building a business with other people's money, offering a tangible sense of what to expect when you're in the thick of it. For any entrepreneur on the journey from idea to funded venture, this podcast serves as a valuable companion, full of hard-won insights and practical takeaways from those who have just been through the fire. Tune in to hear how pressure shapes a pitch, how relationships translate into checks, and how founders just like you managed to get it done.
