Show notes

Produced by Foundersuite.com, "How I Raised It" goes behind the scenes with startup founders who have raised capital. This episode is with Aaron Schwartz of Passport Shipping (www.passportshipping.com), a provider of international shipping services designed for eCommerce companies. The Company recently raised $3 million of seed funding from Precursor Ventures, Resolute Ventures and Ryan Hoover of Product Hunt. Sophia Amoruso (GirlBoss) and April Underwood (Slack) also participated in the round. In this episode, Aaron talks about creating an "asset light" business in the shipping world, how he built investor relationships well in advance of raising capital, the advantages of having a diverse cap table, the terms he uses when putting together an Advisory Board, and much more.
