Guide
Pre-Series A SaaS founders are in the market for more than capital. They are building advisor relationships, finding enterprise design partners, and looking for the operators who have done the next mile before. They are accessible before a competitive process begins.

The ones worth reaching leave a public trail: product launches, early customer announcements, conference appearances, and a body of writing that shows they understand the market deeply.
