Don't give away half of your company for two months of work. Pick up some consulting work pronto. Sell your car. Try to get up-front payments from future clients.

Anecdotal stories of people securing funding in one day over lunch are true, but not the norm. Usually fundraising is a six month full-time process. If you're on the precipice right now and truly feel (and I think you have to truly feel it!) that revenue is right around the corner, then stick to that path for at least a couple of months. You can always get jobs and pursue funding at that point.
