Who has experience in attracting investments remotely?

Question

Startups

Dear colleagues!
Please share your experience, or, perhaps, other people's cases that you know about on the issue of attracting investments remotely. Perhaps you can suggest sites for attracting investments. I collected about 30 sites (only Russian-speaking), of various levels and quality.
Does it even make sense for investment seekers to spend time (and in some cases money) working with these sites?
Examples of sites: the city of money, the flow from the alpha bank, simplify, bboss (some work on the principle of a bulletin board, some - roundfanting, Sberbank plans to open a platform for collective investment in business).
There are a lot of ads on Avito, both from investors and applicants, but is there any sense in this?
From my own experience, I’ll say: I tried various ways to attract investment, at the moment the 3F rule (friend, full, family) and bank loans still work, the sites didn’t help me in any way.
What experience or opinion do you have about attracting investments to a business/project remotely?

Answer 1

What does remotely mean? It's just that after correspondence in VK, no one will transfer the required amount to your card) Investments are a very laborious process) And if everything is relatively simple with crowdfunding sites - everything is regulated by the site itself (in theory), then in other cases it is repeated meetings, discussing details and so on and so forth.
As for the question itself, it matters where you are looking for (in Russia or over the hill) and at what stage the project is. In Russia, there is no investment in startups at an early stage, for Russian "venture investors" you must have a working business with a proven model and a profitable one, and then they can invest in scaling. In the West, it's the other way around - venture capitalists like the early stages more, so that later they can "come out" profitably.
Try western accelerators,
PS If your startup is more about a classic business, then I would try all the platforms that you have on your pencil, well, spend a day on it - it won't get any worse)
