Is it now being done better, faster and\/or cheaper?<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: 'Book Antiqua', Palatino; font-size: 14pt;\">Is there a current problem or niche in the market that the business is going to help solve?<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: 'Book Antiqua', Palatino; font-size: 14pt;\">Is the market for this product or service growing at a strong rate for the next 3-5 years?<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: 'Book Antiqua', Palatino; font-size: 14pt;\">Are the financial projections supported by the industry and revenue models?<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: 'Book Antiqua', Palatino; font-size: 14pt;\">Has the revenue model been proven, and does it have a significant advantage over competition?<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: 'Book Antiqua', Palatino; font-size: 14pt;\">What percentage of the company is being offered in return for this investment and what market capitalization does that indicate?<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: 'Book Antiqua', Palatino; font-size: 14pt;\">Does the company have any contracts or partnerships in place?<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: 'Book Antiqua', Palatino; font-size: 14pt;\">What intellectual property does the company have?<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: 'Book Antiqua', Palatino;

font-size: 14pt;\">Every business owner wants to make sure their company looks as pristine as possible.\u00a0To accomplish this, business owners will want to:<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: 'Book Antiqua', Palatino; font-size: 14pt;\"><strong>Have a strong business plan and presentation without the fluff<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'Book Antiqua', Palatino; font-size: 14pt;\">Most investors are not going to want to go through a massive business plan that is full of unnecessary jargon or statistics. \u00a0It is better to pique the interest of investors (and short attention spans) by keep your business plan or presentation simple, and focusing on only the most important aspects, projections, and strategies.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ol start=\"2\">\n<li><span style=\"font-family: 'Book Antiqua', Palatino; font-size: 14pt;\"><strong>Under-promise and overdeliver <\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'Book Antiqua', Palatino; font-size: 14pt;\">As much as you believe in your company, providing projections with astronomical growth rates can be detrimental.\u00a0Although the higher the growth and figures, the better your company\u2019s future looks, it also can make investors question your methodologies.\u00a0If you are unable to deliver on the first set of projections in your model that you had shared with interested parties, it will create concern and doubt in the minds of investors.\u00a0That is why it is best to have projections that are realistic and achievable, and if you surpass your projections, all your other future projections will appear much more achievable in the eyes of the investor.\u00a0This will also create a track record of your success and will leave investors with a positive perception.<\/span><\/p>\n<ol start=\"3\">\n<li><span style=\"font-family: 'Book Antiqua', Palatino; font-size: 14pt;\"><strong>Have a detailed quarterly plan on how you will scale the business<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'Book Antiqua', Palatino; font-size: 14pt;\">Providing a strategic roadmap with a step by step process will help investors understand your vision and your target market.\u00a0By going through this process, the investor can see exactly how you plan on using the capital raised and will feel much more comfortable proceeding.\u00a0Plans should include goals, expenditure estimates, and should specify when and how you will become profitable. \u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'Book Antiqua', Palatino; font-size: 14pt;\"><strong>Ensuring Due Diligence is Complete and Accurate<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'Book Antiqua', Palatino; font-size: 14pt;\">Once an investor has decided that your business has strong investment potential, they will then want to go through the due diligence process and review the business in depth.\u00a0It is vital for you as the business owner to ensure that the due diligence package you provide is complete and accurate, as to avoid any issues during discussions.\u00a0Documents that investors will want to review include the <strong>business plan, financial performance\/projections, contracts, partnership agreements<\/strong>, and more. \u00a0You will want to make sure you have all pertinent information readily available in a data room and organized in a way that makes it easy for investors to view the document they want quickly and without confusion.\u00a0The more transparency you can provide an investor, the more they will be able to understand your business and feel comfortable investing in you.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'Book Antiqua', Palatino;
