In this episode of Founders Future, host Mishal Saeed sits down with Brad Blazar, founder of Capital School and a global authority on raising capital from high-net-worth investors. Brad shares his journey from building a billion-dollar oil company to launching Capital School, revealing how he identified the critical gap between entrepreneurs’ dreams and their access to funding. With over $2B raised in his career, Brad breaks down his "investor-ready" framework, the 3 ways to work with him (coaching, collaborations, or investing alongside him), and why most coaching programs fail to address the advanced strategies needed to attract family offices and institutional capital.
Brad also dives into his client acquisition playbook—from 6-7% ROAS on paid ads to global speaking stages—and the mindset shifts required to scale beyond "randomness in motion." He shares hard-won lessons on building remote vs. in-person sales teams, why 90% of entrepreneurs self-sabotage by not fully committing to coaching, and his vision for international bootcamps to democratize capital access. For anyone tired of small checks and ready to play at the "big kids’ table," this episode is a masterclass in systemic fundraising and the compounding power of persistence.
