It is harder to raise funding as a non-technical founder as a non-technical one.

Some of this is silly stigma, but some of it is reasonable risk awareness.

Investors aren't worried that you can't code.

They are worried you'll burn through their money because you don't know how to get a tech product made - and they don't want you to learn on their dime.

I get that.

In this episode, I break down why non-technical founders face more skepticism in fundraising — and what actually changes the conversation.

In this episode, you will hear:

Why investors don't care if you can code — and what they're actually judging instead
How non-technical founders accidentally burn $100k+ before product-market fit (and how to avoid it)
The fastest way to turn investor skepticism into confidence without pretending to be technical
What a credible product and hiring plan looks like when you're asking for someone else's money
