About This Podcast

Hey—I’m Ellis Hammond. I’ve been a part of raising over $100 million of capital and currently serve as Vice President at Aspen Funds. This show is a behind-the-scenes look at our journey to scale from $250 million in equity to over $1 billion by 2030—and how we plan to get there. Raising a Billion Dollars is for serious capital raisers, fund managers, and real estate sponsors who want to grow their own capital-raising business. It’s candid. It’s real-time. And it's packed with insights, ideas, and lessons we’re learning along the way. If you’re looking for creative strategies, tested acquisition channels, and a front-row seat to what’s working right now—you're in the right place. Let’s build something big together.
