<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n1: How much money do we need? <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sometimes it\u2019s wise to bring in a seasoned pro here to help evaluate your estimated needs vs your idea of what you can do with $10K.\u00a0If, for example, you are raising money to get the word out, raising $10K isn\u2019t going to get you very far.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
2: What are we willing to give up? <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nothing is free in this life: What is acceptable to you? A Leveraged Buyout (LBO) is exciting when you are ready to make that move, whereas giving up 10% of control might be too much for an enthusiastic founder at the beginning of their growth.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
3: Why would someone give us money? <\/p>\n\n\n\n
If the answer is, because we need it, go back to the drawing board.\u00a0See the future, envision the end-game, and then believe in it with everything you have and everything you are.\u00a0 Your business plan should read like a prediction grounded in evidence.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
4: Would Aunt Martha understand our value proposition? <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Look at your pitch deck objectively. If you couldn\u2019t give it to an outsider without industry knowledge then you\u2019re too far in the weeds. Revise, restructure, clarify. It doesn\u2019t have to be the most beautiful deck ever, it does have to be clear and compelling. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
