Ranking Fund Types by Capital Raising with Lincoln : Ep 374

In this strategic conversation, Bridger Pennington sits down with Lincoln to rank different types of investment funds by how easy—or difficult—they are to raise capital for. Drawing from real-world fundraising experience, they break down:

• The fundraising ladder: which fund types attract capital fastest and which require the most credibility, education, and patience.
• LP perception vs. reality: why some strategies sound compelling but struggle to raise, while others quietly close capital with ease.
• Track record traps: how much past performance actually matters, depending on the fund structure and investor profile.
• Matching strategy to investor: how aligning fund type with the right LP base can dramatically shorten your raise timeline.
• Choosing wisely early: why picking the wrong fund structure can slow momentum before you ever get to your first close.

Whether you’re deciding what kind of fund to launch or optimizing an existing strategy, this episode gives you a clear framework for thinking about capital raising before you ever pitch your first investor.
