Let’s take a look at the most successful companies in my portfolio. How good were the co-investors?

1. $17 million ARR. Party round, lower tier accelerator, one prominent angel and the founder of a unicorn startup. Good co-investors, but it’s not exactly YC and Sequoia.
2. $12 million ARR. A good early stage VC firm, a prominent angel, and a solid accelerator. Good co-investors, but they don't knock your socks off.
3. $7 million ARR. Strong accelerator, no one else notable.
4. $6 million ARR. One prominent angel, no one else notable.

What you see here is that the really successful companies may have one or two good investors. But they don’t have a round filled with famous names.
