What does it actually take to get a pre-seed check written in 2024? Lucas and Luna sit down with founders who raised their first institutional money before having a product, a co-founder, or even a clear market. Each episode reconstructs the exact pitch, the numbers on the cap table, and the moments that made an angel say yes. Lucas presses for the unit economics that were actually in the deck; Luna asks how the founder dealt with the 40 rejections. This show is for the solo founder who has a slide deck but no warm intro — and wants to see how others crossed that gap. No success-porn, no generic advice: just the concrete mechanics of the first check, deal by deal. #PreSeed #IdeaStage #FirstCheck #AngelInvesting #SeedFunding #StartupCapital #FounderStories #PitchDeck #CapTable #VentureCapital #EarlyStage #StartupAdvice #Business #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #Technology #FundingStrategy #SoloFounder Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo© 2026 Fexingo.

    How Pre-Seed Founders Use Investor Updates to Build Relationships
    2026/06/05
    Most idea-stage founders think investor updates are something you send after you raise money. Lucas and Luna argue that sending monthly updates before you have a term sheet is one of the smartest relationship-building moves you can make. Lucas breaks down the exact structure he's seen work for founders at companies like Loom and Superhuman: a one-page email with a clear metric, one honest challenge, and one specific ask. Luna pushes back on the fear of looking too early or too small, and they discuss the research showing that investors who receive regular updates are 3x more likely to respond to a cold email. They also cover what happens when your update reveals bad news and why that's actually a signal of maturity. Tune in for a tactical playbook on turning updates into a funding advantage at the pre-seed stage. #InvestorUpdates #PreSeedFunding #FounderAdvice #StartupRelationships #ColdEmail #Loom #Superhuman #VCRelationships #IdeaStage #FundraisingTips #MonthlyUpdate #StartupNarrative #FounderTransparency #Business #Technology #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #ThePreSeedPodcast Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo

  • How to Validate Your Pre-Seed Idea Before You Build

    How to Validate Your Pre-Seed Idea Before You Build
    2026/06/05
    Episode 32 of The Pre-Seed Podcast tackles the most dangerous moment for idea-stage founders: falling in love with a solution before you've proven the problem. Lucas and Luna break down the 'problem-first validation' framework used by founders who raised pre-seed rounds without a single line of code. They walk through a concrete case: a fintech founder who spent 6 weeks doing problem interviews instead of building, and ended up pivoting to a completely different product — one that closed an oversubscribed SAFE round eight months later. The hosts share three specific tests any founder can run to know if their idea is worth building, including the 'Five Whys' technique for getting past surface-level complaints and the 'asymmetric commitment' test that separates real customers from people who are just being nice. Plus: how to use a simple Google Doc and a Calendly link to generate the kind of evidence that makes angel investors write first checks. No fluff. No theory. Just a playbook for getting to 'yes' or 'no' before you spend a single dollar on development. #IdeaValidation #PreSeed #CustomerDevelopment #ProblemInterview #LeanStartup #MVP #FounderAdvice #StartupStrategy #AngelInvesting #PreSeedFunding #Business #Technology #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #FintechCaseStudy #FiveWhys #AsymmetricCommitment #NoCodeMVP Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo

    How Pre-Seed Founders Can Use No-Code Tools for Investor Demos
    2026/06/04
    In this episode of The Pre-Seed Podcast, Lucas and Luna dive into how idea-stage founders can build polished investor demos without writing a single line of code. They break down the specific no-code tools that work best for different types of products — from landing page simulators to interactive prototypes — and share a real example of a founder who landed a $250,000 pre-seed check using a demo built entirely with Bubble and Figma. The hosts also discuss common mistakes founders make when demoing to investors, like over-engineering the prototype or focusing on features instead of the core problem. If you're a non-technical founder trying to get your first meeting, this episode gives you a concrete playbook. Plus, Lucas and Luna share a lighthearted moment about what they'd build if they had to start a company today. #PreSeed #NoCode #InvestorDemo #Bubble #Figma #IdeaStage #Founders #VentureCapital #AngelInvesting #Startup #MVP #Prototyping #DemoDay #Business #Technology #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #PreSeedPodcast Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
