Not every business needs to fundraise; many successful companies have built profitability without raising money.

Fundraising is just a step in building a sustainable business; the real goal is to create a product that people want.

Startups don't take off by themselves; founders must actively recruit customers and drive growth manually instead of relying solely on advertising.

It's rare for a company to be profitable from day one; outside funding plays a big role in sustaining a company while it grows.

The best companies grow through word-of-mouth rather than paid acquisition, and in the early days of a startup, if you lack funds, focus on growing your business without spending money by doing things that don't scale. This organic growth is a sign of a strong product that resonates with users.

Companies that successfully identify valuable ideas can experience rapid revenue growth, as evidenced by startups that have significantly increased their revenue shortly after launching.

Fundraising does not guarantee success; most startups that raise money do not achieve significant revenue.

The narrative around companies that raised excessive funds but are now becoming profitable is shifting, suggesting a positive outlook for founders as they can achieve profitability without additional capital.

Successful founders focus on their product, customers, revenue, and team, rather than getting distracted by the noise in the startup ecosystem, such as fundraising news and social media chatter.
