It's funny, I had the founders of UiPath, Klaviyo, Service Titan, and none of them could raise. And it meant that they all were forced to stay very close to customers for the first few years. They didn't hire customer service teams. They didn't even hire product people because they had to do it all themselves. All three said the company would not be the success it is if they'd raised the money.
