Get funding by being Investor-Ready

The best way to attract and pitch investors is to become investor-ready. You must be able to describe the most important aspects of your startup.

You can reach outĀ with an executive summary or pitch deck.

You should include answers to my top 7 questions:

  1. Who specifically are your customers?
  2. What is their big problem and why is it worth solving?
  3. What is your solution and why is itĀ compelling?
  4. Why do you believe you've identified a strong market?
  5. How quickly and inexpensively can you build an MVP?
  6. What unique insights and skillsĀ make you qualified?
  7. How many customers and how much time do you need forĀ profitability?

Note: Please keep theĀ hype to a minimum. Don't use terms likeĀ world class talent, cutting edge technology, state-of-the-art solution and unlimited growth potential. They don't attract investors ... unless you can show evidence.
