Frequently Asked Questions

What types of investors does myl2i connect clients with?
We selectively introduce clients to institutional investors, venture capital firms, family offices, and private equity funds. Fit always matters more than volume.

How long does a typical fundraising process take?
Most of our clients complete investor readiness and fundraising in 3–6 months, with materials finalised in as little as 15–20 days.

What’s the difference between equity and debt funding?
Equity involves giving up shares, while debt financing preserves ownership but requires repayment. We can help you identify which structure — or hybrid — supports your long-term resilience.

Can you share examples of companies you’ve helped?
We respect client confidentiality, but we can demonstrate proof through measurable signals — profit gains, stronger margins, and rebuilt investor trust — all achieved by applying deliberate growth principles.

Do you work internationally or only in Europe?
Our network spans Europe and beyond. Through our global investor relationships, we work with founders and businesses worldwide.

Do I need traction before approaching investors?
Not always. What matters most is that you have a clear problem, a credible solution, and a realistic path to profit.

Do you charge hidden fees?
No. Our pricing is fully transparent. You’ll know from the start what you’re committing to and what success looks like.

How are your fees structured?
We combine a consultation retainer with a success fee. TThe retainer demonstrates your commitment, while the success fee ensures our interests align with your desired outcome.

When do I pay the success fee?
Only when funds are secured through the investors we introduce. Payment is due after capital is received, never before.

Can the consultation fee be split?
Yes. For flexibility, it can be paid in up to three installments.

Do you ever reinvest your own fees for clients?
Sometimes. In selected cases we may reinvest part of the success fee back into the company when we see long-term value in the partnership.

Are additional services included in the fees?
Core engagement covers investor placement. Extras such as due diligence or pitch deck support are quoted separately, based on your needs.

What makes you different from other fundraising advisors?
We don’t just chase investors — we prepare you to win them. That means building your story, your deck, your numbers, and your strategy until they’re bank-proof and investor-ready.

Do you only connect us with investors?
No. Our unique angle is marketing consultancy woven into fundraising. We bridge the gap between founder ambition and investor expectations with positioning, narrative, and strategy that set you apart.

How do you align with our success?
We work on a transparent retainer + success fee model. Your victory is our win. In some cases, we even reinvest part of our fee back into your business.

What kind of investors do you reach?
We map and access the right universe for your stage and sector: angels, VCs, private equity, and family offices—plus alternative paths like strategic partnerships, revenue-based financing, or M&A.

What’s the added value of your consultancy?
Investor access is nothing without clarity. We bring marketing strategy, competitive positioning, and CEO-level advisory into the process — so you raise capital with a sharper edge and stronger story.

What should I have ready before our first conversation?
Be prepared to explain the problem you’re solving, why it matters now, who your customer is, and the size of the market you’re addressing.

Do I need a full business plan?
Not at all. A clear revenue model, realistic milestones, and an understanding of your competitors are enough for us to begin shaping your case.

How important is my team?
Very. Investors prioritise people over numbers when making decisions. We’ll help you show why your team is the right one to deliver.

What do investors care about most?
In the end, it’s simple: what’s in it for them? We’ll work together to make sure your story answers that directly and convincingly.
