💡 VC firms see thousands of deals and have a refined sense of how the market is valuing deals because they get price signals across all of these deals.

💡 Competition slides can make or break your pitch! There are two types of competition slides you should master: 1️⃣ Deck Slide: Simple and clean. Keep the focus on YOU, leaving investors curious for more details. 2️⃣ Follow-Up Slide: Detailed, educating investors on how to properly assess your competition and value drivers. This is your chance to show why you stand out. Pro tip: Start with the detailed version, then simplify it for your pitch. Make sure both slides tell the same story! 📊 ✅ 👉 Get started on your fundraising journey with KAARIA! 🚀 Get your valuation Begin now: https://lnkd.in/gBYT9u5M Thanks, Credit & kudos to Michael Ho #Fundraising #StartupTips #InvestorRelations #PitchDeck #SeriesA #valuations #startups #fundraising #founders #Startup #innovation #entrepreneurship #kaaria #sustainability #kaariastartupvaluation #investing #networking #venturecapital #kaariagetfunded #exits

Founders, let's chat about this. 👇 I hear this saying a ton. "Know someone willing to invest? Introduce them, and I'll give you a commission." I hate to burst your bubble, but it really doesn't work like that. It's so important to do your homework on investors. They need to really get what your company is about before jumping in. And about those commissions—while they might sound simple, they can seriously eat into your funds. Imagine slicing off 3-4% of a million bucks. That’s a hefty chunk that could be fueling your growth. Be smart about how we handle investments and introductions. Your company’s future might depend on it. #founders #entrepreneurship #startups #startupecosystem #venturecapital #vcfunding #raisingcapital #fundraising #familyoffice #investment #knowyourinvestors #investors #innovation #scale
