I have been self-financing the turnaround of my business and struggling to raise an investment round. This has forced me to dig deep and use my own resources to finance the business and now I am starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel! Revenues ramping, major customers signing up and tracking towards profitability.

The conclusion I have come to is that as an entrepreneur you need to drive to profitability first and then look at your financing options. If you need capital to get to profitability, the best option is a strategic investor that shares and understands the vision and can help you grow the business.
