What Happens When You Work With Raise 84
Create A Steady Stream Of Investor Leads
Tired of wondering “Where do I even find the right investors?” We’ll help you build a qualified, engaged investor audience that grows month after month—so you’re never starting your raise from zero.
Scale Your Raise
From your first $100K to multi-million-dollar rounds, we give you the systems, positioning, and outreach that turn interest into commitments—fast. Investors won’t be asking if they’ll invest, but how soon they can.
Remove The Guesswork, Raise With Confidence
No more cold-call grind or chasing random leads. Our ASCENT™ framework gives you a predictable, repeatable process to attract, engage, and close the right backers—without burning time or energy.
The Challenge
In today’s competitive capital markets, founders, fund managers, and creators face one core problem: how to raise capital predictably and consistently.
Most get stuck in the same exhausting loop—
networking events, investor dinners, cold calls, paid lists, sporadic LinkedIn posts—
all for slow, inconsistent results.
The truth?
Right now, qualified investors are actively looking for opportunities like yours.
But traditional methods can’t get you in front of them fast enough—or with the clarity and confidence needed to spark a “yes.”
The Raise 84 Solution
We replace scattered, outdated outreach with a proven, repeatable framework that puts your offer in front of the right investors, at the right time, with the right message.
Through our ASCENT™ methodology, you’ll:
- Align your vision and capital goals
- Select high-probability, high-alignment investors
- Craft a compelling pitch that connects and converts
- Engage with precision, not hope
- Negotiate commitments with confidence
- Track results to scale your raise again and again
Instead of chasing, you’ll start attracting. Instead of guesswork, you’ll have a roadmap. And instead of stalled conversations, you’ll have committed investors.

The Raise 84 Impact

Mentorship with Meaning
Each year, the Raise 84 team commits 84 hours of free, one-on-one mentorship to emerging entrepreneurs, nonprofit founders, or student-led ventures. It’s our way of helping build tomorrow’s dealmakers before they even step into the capital markets.

FAQs
We work with a select group of founders, fund managers, and investors each quarter. This means spots are limited, and our focus stays on delivering results for the clients we take on. Here’s what potential clients often want to know before securing their place with Raise 84:
Many clients begin having investor conversations within 30–60 days. We move quickly, but spots in our programs are limited, and we only onboard a set number of clients each quarter to keep results high.
From your first $100K to multi-million-dollar rounds—or launching a fund—we’ve built pathways to match your capital goal. Because we work with a small, curated group at a time, your raise gets the attention it deserves.
They’re not a directory or mass list. Raise Partners are vetted angels, family offices, and institutional investors actively looking for deals. We only introduce them to opportunities that meet our quality standards—meaning yours won’t get lost in a pile.
The Summit Society is our invitation-only network of elite investors and off-market opportunities. Access is reserved for select VIP members of Raise 84, and space is capped to ensure every member has direct exposure to high-quality deals.
We don’t hand you a PDF and wish you luck. We’re side-by-side with you—building your investor story, refining your pitch, setting up campaigns, and helping you close. Because we limit the number of active raises at once, you get deep, focused support.
No. We’ve worked with raises in SaaS, consumer brands, creative projects, funds, and more. The common thread? We only take on opportunities we believe are investor-ready and can stand out in a competitive market.
Placement agents can be slow and expensive. Crowdfunding sites can be noisy and unfocused. Raise 84 is built for speed, precision, and repeatability—and we only work with clients we believe can deliver, which keeps our investor relationships strong.
It depends on the opportunity, but checks often range from $100K to several million. We match you with the right investors for your raise stage and size, so you’re not pitching people who can’t say “yes.”
You can—but most self-raising efforts lack the targeting, positioning, and systems that actually convert. We give you the network, the process, and the credibility that open doors fast. And because space in our programs is limited, you’re part of a tight, focused cohort.
We offer flexible structures based on the pathway you choose—flat fees, retainer + success fee, or equity-aligned partnerships. Since we only take on a handful of new raises each quarter, we’ll review options with you on your Strategy Call to ensure a strong mutual fit.
The Capital You Need Is Closer Than You Think
We take on only a limited number of new clients each quarter to ensure every raise is positioned for maximum success. If you’re ready to move from chasing capital to closing it, now is the time to secure your spot.
