The final push

Investment typically surges at both the beginning and end of campaigns. Capitalize on this psychology by intensifying your communication during the final days.

When you've reached 70% of your funding goal, plan to close your round in the next 7 days. This creates a natural deadline that drives action from undecided investors.

5 proven closing strategies

1. Daily updates with countdown

Post daily updates that include:

• Days remaining before closing
• Current funding percentage
• New investor highlights
• Recent business achievements

2. Strategic scarcity

SeedBlink's "Last Call" notification highlights either:

• Limited time remaining ("Only 48 hours left")
• Limited allocation available ("Only €50,000 investment slots remain")
• Both time and allocation constraints for maximum impact

3. Re-engage your entire network

Contact everyone who showed interest but hasn't committed:

• Personalized follow-ups to warm leads
• Updates to existing investors about reaching goals
• Targeted messages addressing specific hesitations

4. Showcase strategic investors

Highlight notable investors who've recently joined:

• Industry experts who validate your vision
• Business leaders who recognize your potential
• Institutional investors bringing credibility

5. Final day all-channel push

Coordinate across all channels in the final 24 hours:

• Email sequence with countdown timer
• LinkedIn announcements with investor testimonials
• Personal outreach to high-potential investors
• SeedBlink platform updates

For your final platform update, include:

• A thank you to existing investors
• One compelling business metric
• Clear closing time with timezone
• A simple, direct call to action

Remember:
The most successful rounds on SeedBlink often secure 15-25% of their total funding in the final three days. Your focused effort during this crucial period can make the difference between meeting and exceeding your funding target.
