Pre-Seed for E-Commerce in Chicago
Chicago-based E-Commerce founders raising a Pre-Seed round need preparation that addresses three dimensions: stage requirements ($250K–$1.5M), industry dynamics (E-Commerce-specific metrics and investors), and local market positioning.
Pre-seed investors bet on the team and market thesis. At this stage, conviction and clarity matter more than traction.
For E-Commerce specifically, investors evaluate: contribution margin, repeat purchase rate, CAC by channel, and LTV/CAC ratio.
