 "This is Startup Funding's QUANTUM LEAP..."

 

Identifying how and where to find startup funding, then preparing yourself fully to be "investor ready" can happen faster than you ever thought possible -- when you're working with Startup Funding PROS

 

Does this sound like you?

1. You need to raise a substantial amount of money (over $100,000 - millions) and you want to do it QUICKLY!
2. You want a pro to tell you which type of funding is most likely to work for you so that you can stop wasting time and money.
3. You don't want to give up a chunk of ownership (equity) in your company to an accelerator at such an early-stage.
4. You're not sure how to position your company, your team and your proof of concept before you step in front of investors.
5. You've never successfully pitched THIS company before or you've never been through a round of funding
6. You don’t know how to answer the somewhat predictable, yet hard-hitting Qs EVERY investor will ask.

“Having Deb on your team means you will win!”


-Craig Spitzer, CEO, a2c.

HOW IT WORKS...

before the 3 day event…


✔️We'll have 2 coaching calls to figure out where you are in the process and what you are going to need.


✔️We'll give you access to our portal of resources to get you ready for a world-class experience at STARTUP FUNDING BOOTCAMP!


during the 3 day event…


✔️SFB happens during one 3-day weekend, where we determine which startup funding is most likely to work for you.


✔️Then we get you "investor-ready" by helping you develop your pitch, and giving you guidance on how to answer difficult questions from investors.


✔️We'll teach you how to package and present  your data. 


✔️We'll show you which decisions you need to make on your funding contracts and help you make the decisions you need to make by explaining the repercussions of each decision.


✔️Each session is structured in a way that will automatically transform where your startup is now, into the type of startup that gets funding from a myriad of sources. Implementation is in real-time so that you don’t leave with just a bunch of notes and to-do's!


✔️Whether your startup is more likely to succeed with a friends & family round of funding, a strategic partnership, Angels, or VCs, we give you all the tools you’ll need to succeed and have a true impact on your startup’s bottom line!


after the 3 day event…


✔️You’ll leave with all of the elements you need to execute your funding strategy including a funding plan, company, team, and investor preparation, collection and organization of data, a killer brand story and pitch, 90% done-for-you contracts, your completed data room and your cap table!


✔️We follow up with 4 coaching calls after the event to help you overcome any obstacles.
