If you really have good project especially you already have a start up big investor will comes to you. And if you really seriouse about your project. You need to attend to every blockchain event and describe your project to community. When you gain trust from community its easy to get private investor with big money. But please dont scam or you will goea to jail. Your project must be reasonable.
Thank for your advice, we are going to attend blockchain event. However, I find it very hard to explain my project to the community since I do not have a community yet and at the stage of private sale I find it very hard to build one. Isn't it too early to build a community at the stage of a private sale?
