DOES ANY ONE HAVE EXPERIENCE IN FUNDRAISING WITHOUT THE HELP OF ANY BANK?

We'd like to get the community's feedback on the following idea. We
are considering raising a fund, but we need help with the idea of fundraising and finding investors, does anyone complete his or her financing without the help of loans, only using money from investors?

I have been involved in acquisitions that were preferable funded 100% by equity, this hurt the IRR of the investment as there was no debt with a lower cost of capital to leverage. But there were specific reasons why the investors preferred this approach vs. the risk of defaulting to debt obligations. The main reason was that the market was highly cyclical and the cost model of the company highly variable.

This was a manufacturer of high-end goods, highly sensitive to consumer confidence and with almost no fixed cost.
