Le Problème
Lumio had 18 months of product development, 40 paying customers, and genuine MRR growth. Their French founding team had done everything right technically. But when they entered conversations with two US seed-stage funds, both required the company to flip to a Delaware C-Corp and establish a credible US digital presence before proceeding to term sheet. Their existing French-language .fr site didn't give investors what they needed: no US address, no English product overview, no clear team page, no investor relations section, and no professional email on a .com domain. One fund's compliance team flagged the company as low-credibility after running a KYB check.
Notre Approche
PresenceReady built Lumio a full Presence+ site in 5 days: an English-language homepage explaining their product clearly with use cases and target market, a Team page with professional bios, a Press page for their recent coverage, and a Contact page with their Delaware address and investor inquiries email. A new .com domain anchored everything. Every page was structured to pass the 12-point review US fund compliance teams run on prospective portfolio companies.
Le Résultat
Both funds cleared their KYB review on the first pass. Lumio received a term sheet from their primary target investor within 3 weeks. The seed round closed at $1.2M. Their PresenceReady site is now their primary investor-facing asset, and they've since used it for two additional partnership conversations that required compliance review.
“We had customers and revenue, but US investors needed to see a real company website before they'd move forward. PresenceReady gave us a professional .com presence in five days. Both funds cleared us on the first review.”
