Getting your company’s valuation right is a crucial and complex process that hugely affects the future of your company.
Too high? Investors might think it’s a turnoff. Too low? You gave away too much and shot yourself in the foot.
Because of ego and pride, most founders tend to pursue the highest valuation possible. Most founders but not this episode’s guest.
Emmanuel Straschnov, a French entrepreneur and co-founder of Bubble, asked for a lower valuation in the seed round for his company.
And if you think that this is the mark of a failure, you’re wrong.
Emmanuel raised his seed round successfully and a few years later pulled off a monster round - raising over $100 million from big-name investors.
With his laser-focused passion, accompanied by his ability to look at the bigger picture, he was able to take a path different from most founders.
In this episode, Emmanuel takes us back from the very beginning and shines light on what happened throughout his fundraising journey for Bubble, following his unique and risky valuation strategy.
