I'm Ted Seides, and this is Capital Allocators. My guest on today's show is John Kim, or Kimmer, who's raised more than $70 billion across his career for leading venture capital and private equity firms. Kimmer recently distilled three decades of lessons into The Dow of Fundraising, the best book I've ever read on fundraising for investment managers.
voice-verified
Since then, Kimmer joined a general catalyst portfolio company, ILA Sciences, as chairman and president of corporate development.
voice-verified
Our conversation covers Kimmerer's philosophy about raising capital, the sales process, art of persuasion, best practices in a meeting, frameworks determining fundraising success, taxonomy of institutional investors, ideal sales team structure and compensation, and the features he's carried over from capital formation for funds to a new operating role.

Before we get going, summer's in the air, and with that comes summer vacations and out-of-the-office email responses. At the beginning of the year, I pledged to my team that I'd respond less rapidly to emails while traveling. So I started writing entertaining out-of-the-office emails every time I'd be away from my computer. There was one about ditching my cell phone for a day at the Masters with no chance I'd respond, just like it ought to be.
voice-verified
There was another about not responding because I was attending Will Gadara's Unreasonable Hospitality Summit, which created some cognitive dissonance for me, knowing that I wouldn't respond while allegedly learning how to see others better.
