Designed for Growth.
I can’t recommend RAC more highly for other startups, based on the experience we’ve had with them as a capital partner. RAC’s Growth Advisor Program has helped mature our Go-To-Market (GTM) motion, they have questioned and challenged our assumptions, supported our decisions and were also instrumental in helping us close our recent $110M growth equity round.
We are excited to have RAC as our partner. In addition to the capital investment, having access to their proven methodologies and operational frameworks has been of tremendous value and directly helped us accelerate growth.
I've frequently heard from prospective capital partners that they will "add value" beyond contributing capital, however, I've generally been disappointed, but the relationship with RAC has over delivered. Most importantly, the folks at RAC have proven to be good people -- kind, experienced, and inclined to do the work.
RAC has been an invaluable partner for Ziflow, providing a unique combination of invaluable resources and strategic guidance every step of the way. We would highly recommend them as a capital partner to any software business, based on our experience with them.
