How to get funding?

Spurred on by the good news of this post I thought I'd ask something which I've wondered for many years now.

How do people go about getting funding? It seems like such a dark art to me.

    I've been brainstorming a lot for the past few months about finding and raising funds. Unfortunately, the tools (platforms) produced for individual funding are not yet sufficient. I think there are two basic requirements to be able to find funds. To have a large audience, and to stand out with the quality of your work. In cases where these two requirements are met, it is almost impossible not to collect individual funds. I think that people's perspective on individual funding has changed positively recently. With the pandemic, people started to spend money on much more things (online).

      Right, but whenever I see people announce they have raised series-A funding, it's never explained how the process works. Do the investment fund companies seek you out or do you need to approach them?

    Hello Jabajac, I'm a freelancer at Fiverr. My goal is to help companies get funding by providing investor leads. Once you tell me a bit more about your project and plans, I will be researching the pool of potential leads. Based on what I find, I will offer you a tailored set of detailed info on the Investors that might be interested in working with you.

      So it genuinely is 'who you know' rather than there being some formal way to apply?

        Getting investors is like finding a spouse.

        You'd ever marry someone who submitted an application to marry you?
