How To Raise Millions For Your Startup in 60 Days

Matthew Parker

Founder & CEO of ModernTax

From $0 to $1M in 60 Days (Even When "Experts" Say It's Impossible)

Forget What You've Been Told About Fundraising

"The way the top-end venture capitalist firms work is they'll take you seriously if you come in introduced by somebody they've worked with before, and they won't take you seriously if you don't." — Marc Andreessen

I'm here to tell you that's complete BS.

I've raised $4.3M+ for my startups—including $1M in just 60 days using cold emails. No warm intros. No "network." Just a strategic approach that most VCs don't want you to know about.

What you’ll learn

The Anti-VC Playbook: Cold Emails, Fast Closes, and No BS.

  • Get access to 500+ pre-researched investors sorted by check size and focus

  • Learn a simple tiering system to prioritize your best-fit targets first

  • Review a vault of 50+ real cold emails that secured meetings and investment

  • Learn the anatomy of a cold email that gets opened, read, and replied to

  • See real fundraising campaigns broken down — successes and failures

  • Learn the outreach-to-meetings-to-offer funnel that compresses a raise into 60 days

  • Learn Matt's counterintuitive meeting-calendar strategy for creating FOMO

  • Batch investor meetings together to manufacture competitive pressure

  • Learn negotiation tactics built for first-time founders with limited leverage

  • Walk through how to create leverage even with a single term sheet

  • Learn why cold outreach beats warm intros for first-time founders

  • Apply the same playbook Matt used to raise $4.3M+ with no network

Who this course is for

  • Outsiders: Cold emailing is more effective than begging for warm intros when you are a first-time founder.

  • Ambitious founders: 60 days is all you need (not 6+ months). You honestly do not have six months to raise. This course is about moving fast.
