@michlimlim Gotta pay to play sometimes :)

[Erik Lim @ErikJLim]

@TeamStubHub I did. No response. Also sent email with bank statement as requested

[Erik Lim @ErikJLim]

Sold a ticket on @StubHub 3 months ago, successfully transferred the ticket to the buyer and have contacted the company through call, chat, and email. Still haven’t gotten paid out yet. Have been on the phone for 45 minutes and they can’t get me any support or a supervisor…

@nealkhosla lol a bit exaggerated but totally agree

[Erik Lim @ErikJLim]

@NWischoff Truthfully I underestimated it too. I worked 8 years at 3 leading multiple billion $ aum firms and have deployed $400m+ before starting my own VC Potluck.

For most, there are a lot of “better,” easier and lucrative routes.

I’m thrilled to announce @anyplacecom has secured $10.27M in Series B Funding! 🎉

This round was led by @Jason and the @LAUNCH Fund, alongside @CapitalX_ , @GaingelsVC, Riverside Ventures, Potluck Ventures (@ErikJLim), and the rest of our amazing supporters. And a warm welcome to @msavino, the president at the LAUNCH Fund, who has now joined our board!

We’re on a mission to create work-friendly accommodations across the globe that give people the confidence to embrace travel with work. The funding milestone brings us closer to achieving this, as it allows us to continue expanding inventory in our current markets while also opening new locations.

A huge thank you to @TechCrunch and @bayareawriter for covering the news – our whole team appreciates it 🙏

@nic_detommaso 👏 love LA

[Erik Lim @ErikJLim]

@signatureblock_ Love what you're doing for the emerging fund manager community! #grateful

[Erik Lim @ErikJLim]

@isaac_laifer TikTok is such a valuable place to share and learn. Thanks for the shoutout!

🏁 The first 90 days set the tone for the rest of the year.

It's the best time to implement 1 daily action that moves us one inch closer to our 2023 goal.

Mine is to meet 5 potential LPs per week and close an additional $3M for Potluck Ventures by end of March.

What's yours?

[Alexis Ohanian 🗽 @alexisohanian]

Love to see it. More founder content like this, please.

[Erik Lim @ErikJLim]

@lucy_guo What about startup VC funds? 🤔😂

[Erik Lim @ErikJLim]

@NWischoff I’m on the fence. First time funds allow for new, diverse, and innovative ideas and managers to come into the room. Imagine if this dynamic applied to startup fundraising… basically innovation would come to a halt.

[Erik Lim @ErikJLim]

😁 The most fun part about being a VC is introducing an LP that can be a potential customer to my founders. Nothing like it.

@morgenstern8989 @brexHQ Looking forward to you spending more time here

[Erik Lim @ErikJLim]

@benmtaft @NWischoff Gotcha, that's what I hear from most emerging managers too. Did you do any cold outreach to potential LPs? What was size of fund I?

[Erik Lim @ErikJLim]

@benmtaft @NWischoff gotcha, and for big major family office checks - howd you meet them or did you have a previous relationship from your previous startup?

[Erik Lim @ErikJLim]

@MuieenCader Love it, thanks for sharing. Checking out now

[Erik Lim @ErikJLim]

Who are the most active LPs for emerging managers raising <$50M Fund I? Asking for myself! :)
