The author says he wants funding to grow the businesses. Presumably he wants funding and the help from investors to enable quicker growth than what is possible organically.

Yes, "presumably." That's exactly the problem..
No disgreement from me.
He does not say what kind of funding he has been trying to get, but if my presumption is right, then some kind of Y-Combinator style hypergrowth.
I think the response he got is sensible if he was approaching "Excel investors" who are risk averse, not targeting hypergrowth.
