Investor Prep Packages for Fundraising

Build Credible Financials and a Defensible Valuation For Fundraising

You will get a robust financial plan representing your 5-year growth strategy which can bring all stakeholders on the same page and provide a blueprint for execution.

Specifically, it will illustrate your path to profitability and when you will break even the number of raises and the funding needs per each raise, revenue goals across all revenue streams and how you will achieve them, as well as a resulting valuation.

You need this if you are an early-stage startup and:

  • You are overwhelmed with getting your business off the ground and don’t have the time to learn finance or get an MBA.
  • You know you need to create credible financials for your startup, but finance intimidates you and you simply don’t know where to start.
  • Or you are not scared, but lack the financial knowledge and tools to translate your business plan into a financial model and determine a fair value of your company.
  • Or, like most of my clients and students, you think it's impossible to create credible assumptions and predict the company's financial performance at such an early stage.
  • Or you might have already tried putting your own financial model using templates from the Internet, but have not been successful in attracting investors.

The result:

  • A complete financial model with all the KPIs
  • 5-year growth strategy
    • Revenue launch timeline
    • Pricing strategy for each revenue stream
    • Go to market strategy for each revenue stream
    • Expenses: operating, capital expenditures, and working capital
  • Funding requirements
  • Valuation

TESTIMONIALS

- Sansan Fibri, DreaMe

"These workshops are extremely useful for all of us. Victoria is the kind of presenter/professional who inspires confidence. I'd recommend her to any startup trying to figure out how it needs to be organized, capitalized, and operated to have a good business model going forward. She focuses on fundamentals, which, too often, are sorely lacking in our ecosystem, and she knows her stuff backwards and forwards"

The material was very informative and thorough, and Victoria shared a lot of tips based on her real-life experience. I highly recommend signing up for The Startup Station's courses. I can't wait to learn the next steps!"
