We closed this deal in under two weeks 👀 . We've actually completed nearly all of our financing rounds in a similar timeframe, and I'm often asked how that is possible. It certainly isn't magic, but it does require: (1) Proactive planning: We always enter fundraising with a full suite of pre-prepared diligence materials and disclosures even in advance of term sheets. Not sure what to prepare? Ask corporate counsel for their current standard diligence lists, or better yet, get a couple but you know your businesses best, so use your judgment and don't wait to be asked. And if you've been through a round of financing before, endeavor to keep your prior Schedule of Exceptions (disclosures) evergreen. (2) Nimble advisors: Our corporate counsel (Goodwin) now knows the drill -- we keep the pen, and deliver drafts of deal docs the day after we sign a term sheet. This creates a dynamic where diligence counsel has everything they need to evaluate the deal from the moment the term sheet is signed. And we've be fortunate to be able to have diligence counsel (and sometimes have even recommended that our investors work with diligence counsel like Gunderson Dettmer) that is on the same page re both thoroughness and getting to a quick close. (3) Partnership with Investor Legal: Each of our investors have been major cheerleaders of Rippling, have signed clean term sheets, and critically, have had legal teams willing to partner to ensure we consummate a fair deal. Making sure that in-house legal is on the same page as you can be the difference between 1 turn instead of 5 turns on docs, and minutes to a decision instead of days. If they say that "time kills all deals," the following folks (and many more) helped us eliminate time. And while I know we continue to work on post-close items, taking a moment to pause and say, thank you!
