Would love to know how fundraising has been impacted by being a remote first company. Did you get resistance? Are there certain investors who are fundamentally for or against?

I think there is a bit of hesitation for some VC's in backing a remote first company - but some are all for it. Investors aren't as much a hivemind as one might think - they all have different theses that impact how they interpret remote first companies.

We did raise some money in the early days (when it was much more faith than evidence) but I don't recall any concern about our remote intentions from our investors. Since then - we've reached profitability.

Another bullet point for you: We're distributed in 6 time zones and haven't had problems with funding.
