It may seem like finding VC and angel investors for your start-up or expansion financing is like finding a needle in a haystack. But from the investor perspective, it's often just as difficult to find the most promising jewels of innovation among the hundreds of proposals that cross their desks. Your chances of grabbing their interest and securing the funding you need are increased dramatically when you do your homework, know the specific investor's "hot spots," and make your pitch in the way angels, VCs and bankers want to see it.

We’ve added new sections, made major enhancements, and incorporated a variety of new tools to help you succeed:

Valuation / Exit / Investor Deal Analysis

There is a lot here, but when you take it one page at a time it makes total sense -- the Assumptions you fill in based upon what you know about your business, industry, and reasonable expectations for the future... take the small, believeble facts and prove-able assumptions and compound them into a what your business could really become. The financial statements fill in automatically. The exclusive one-page Sensitivity Analysis enables you to see the best and worst case scenarios by changing just a few numbers — no need to recalculate anything. How much capital will it take to build your business? When will it make a profit? What's the deal?

Elevator Pitch Outline & Sample
Venture capitalists and angel investors are inundated with great ideas looking for dollars to support them. They're swamped with business plans, and over-run by scores of proposals, all promising the next big thing. Only a select few grab their attention, and even fewer make it past an initial, often cursory review. Often, your best and sometimes only chance to break through with an investor comes in the form of an elevator pitch.

Like a highway billboard, you have just a brief chance to jolt your audience to attention -- and if you strike out with that critical first impression, odds are you won't get a second chance.
