In this episode of the SaaS Revolution Show our host Alex Theuma is
joined by Denis Mosolov, Managing Partner Venture Debt at
Flashpoint, as he discusses what's out there (from a founder's
perspective) if you don't want to dilute. "It's a big challenge for
us, because you know if your company's really going to take-off and
show growth levels that are exciting for the VC community, you do
need to invest and you do need to know how to raise capital. That's
a skill that the founders need to have and so it is a red flag for
me if something is like 100% bootstrapped, because there's a big
question mark - 'are you guys actually able to raise capital?'"
Denis shares: Humble beginnings, half a billion under management,
and three product lines later: Flashpoint's founding story The
current state of venture debt: from 'flight to brand' to extension
rounds Different sources of capital and their requirements - asset
backed debt, convertibles, government subsidies, revenue-based
financing, venture debt and more When a founder would want to
borrow against inventory vs seek out flexible non-dilutive capital,
to non-dilutive expensive 'royalties' His advice to 'hustle,
scramble, make quick decisions, and be proactive' and more!
