AFC Presents In Session with Iceberg: The Pre-raise Playbook โ Systems, Tools & Process
โ๐ Aussie Founders Club Campus In Session with Iceberg: The Pre-raise Playbook โ Systems, Tools & Process
โRaising capital is one of the biggest challenges founders face - and often one of the least efficient. Most founders spend 10+ hours a week, execute hundreds of actions, and juggle multiple systems just to move their raise forward.
โThis session isnโt about the fundamentals of fundraising - itโs about the process. In this tactical deep-dive, Jock Fairweather, founder of Iceberg, shows you how to approach your pre-raise with clarity, structure, and efficiency. Having been involved in over $623m+ raised, Jock has seen first-hand where founders waste time and money - and how to avoid the common traps.
โExpect a candid, founder-first walkthrough of the workflows, systems, and strategies that make fundraising less painful and more productive.

๐ Step-by-step pre-raise process (3-6 months out)
