CASE STUDY: How FMFC Investments Grew Their Investor Base Using the Space Funding Playbook

🧠 About FMFC Investments

FMFC Investments is a football-focused investment fund with a powerful thesis:

Give retail investors access to a historically exclusive asset class—football clubs.

Their mission? Democratize ownership in football by letting fans, supporters, and everyday investors participate in the upside of the world's most beloved sport.

But this wasn’t a quick raise. FMFC wanted to build a long-term movement around equity, community, and global football fandom.

So they partnered with Space Funding to take their capital raise—and their vision—to the next level.

🚨 The Challenge: Educating a Niche Audience

FMFC faced a common hurdle for funds and alternative assets:

• 💭 Most retail investors weren’t familiar with the idea of investing in sports teams
• 💸 It required more education than the average crowdfunding campaign
• ⚖️ They needed a system that combined capital raising with community building and trust

Traditional platforms couldn’t offer:

• Custom investor funnels
• Long-form storytelling
• Lead capture and nurturing
• Data ownership for future rounds

That’s why they chose to go direct—with Space Funding.

🧠 Step 1: Build a Funnel That Educates and Converts

FMFC’s product was unique. So we built a custom capital raising funnel that:

✅ Educated first-time visitors with clarity and simplicity
✅ Showcased the long-term vision and ROI potential
✅ Gave the founder a voice—building trust
✅ Tracked every visitor’s behavior: clicks, views, bounce rate, intent

We combined storytelling, structure, and smart automation to turn curiosity into conviction.

This wasn’t just a pitch—it was a full investor journey.

🔁 Step 2: Capture, Nurture, and Re-Engage

Here’s what most raises miss: follow-up.

We helped FMFC:

• 📩 Capture every lead, even those who didn’t invest on day one
• 🧠 Segment and score leads based on behavior
• 🔁 Re-engage interested parties through email automations and remarketing
• 💬 Continue investor education post-visit

When you're introducing a new asset class, repetition builds trust.
FMFC’s funnel gave them the power to do just that.

They didn’t just raise capital—they built an audience for life.

💸 The Results

✅ What Made FMFC’s Raise Successful

✅ Smart Funnel Design

We didn’t just give FMFC a landing page—we gave them an end-to-end investor acquisition system.

✅ Narrative-Led Positioning

People don’t invest in features—they invest in stories. FMFC positioned themselves as a pioneer in football ownership access.

✅ Own the Audience, Build the Movement

Every investor (or lead) that touched the funnel is now part of FMFC’s ecosystem—for future raises, offers, and club-related announcements.
