A quick gut check.
Can you name the business milestone this round must unlock?
Founders list what the money pays for. Investors ask what risk disappears.
Got a NO in your mind? That's the gap.
You proved the technology.
From the other side of the table, investors need a business they can fund, not a technology they admire.
Investors back businesses they believe can scale. Early on, they look for a credible path from first pilots to repeatable sales, and for numbers that show how the business could work at higher volumes.
They saw the technology. They couldn’t see the business.
You showed the first pilots. Investors wanted to see how those pilots could become repeatable sales and what happens to margins as volume grows.
You showed the forecast. Investors wanted to see what had to happen for the business to scale.
Show investors you can scale.
Know what to raise and what it must prove.
We work from the numbers you already have. Together, we lay out how you get from pilots to repeatable sales, what that takes financially, and which milestone the next round should fund.
a baseline: where you stand without the round, and with it.
a milestone plan you can run the business on.
Your three deliverables
The numbers behind your margins and break-even point, and what a delay in sales means for cash and runway.
Tech unlocks, sales cycles and rounds on one timeline, to break-even and beyond.
How much you’re raising, what it funds, and what that milestone will prove about your ability to scale.
A case you can carry into every investor and board meeting — and make your own.
MONTHLY
Every month. And whenever a pilot slips or a board meeting is coming.
Like a rally co-driver, I read sales, margins and runway against the plan — so you can act before a missed milestone becomes a cash problem.
A delayed contract. A lower margin. What it does to cash and your next round.
Where to accelerate sales, pace spending or revise the plan.
What changed. Your recommendation. The numbers behind it.
I’ve built decision cases around pricing, sales volumes and margins. I bring that same discipline to your next round.
Price, volume and margin first. I find the assumptions that don’t hold — and what they do to cash and break-even.
Complex businesses, reduced to a clear decision: what to fund, what it unlocks and where the risks sit.
Nothing to prepare. I ask the questions your investors will ask next. You leave knowing where your case holds, and where it doesn’t yet.
