Struggling to Raise Capital? Here’s How to Pull in $1.3M in 12 Months
Think raising private capital is only for people with big networks or flashy track records? Not true. If you’re willing to post consistently and strategically, you can attract investors—even if you’re just starting out. Two years ago, I was gearing up for a $110M hotel/condo project. I challenged my partner Wen to help us raise capital quickly, solely through social media. In 12 weeks, he brought in $12M. No fancy ads, no high-pressure pitches—just targeted, consistent posting. Here’s the approach we used: Where to Post: -Our Facebook Group, Apartment Investing Secrets: With 47,000+ members and 3,000+ accredited investors, this community is built to connect people like you with serious investors. -Other Real Estate Facebook Groups: Find groups focused on investing and join the conversation. -LinkedIn: Search for real estate investing hashtags to target the right people. What to Post: Stick with the 4E Framework -Educate: Share insights or lessons learned in your journey. -Engage: Start conversations that draw people in, like asking others about their investment goals. -Encourage: Show real progress to build trust—one of our members, Joe, landed an investor after just a few weeks of consistent posting. -Entertain: Keep it real. Share authentic stories, not just numbers. For our recent 48-unit deal in Hickory, NC, one of our members, @Joe Bisping leveraged our Apartment Investing Secrets community, shared consistent updates on the deal, connected with investors, and secured a partner within a few weeks of posting. Now he’s building on that momentum, attracting even more capital for future deals. Want to Learn How to Do It?
