  • Accelerators and incubators


Bootstrapping Strategy

To Focus on the Right Tactics

There are many books, guides, and courses that cover individual bootstrapping tactics. However, with so many different options available, what founders actually need is a bootstrapping strategy to focus their limited time on the right tactical options.

In this Pitch Creator session, you will learn how to systematically evaluate key bootstrapping options based on their relative cost and risk. This will allow you to prioritize the lower-risk and lower-cost options first.


Growth Capital Strategy

Should You Raise Outside Capital or Bootstrap?

As a founder or CEO, your time is your most valuable asset. Don’t waste months (or potentially years) chasing the wrong investors or pursuing growth capital strategies at the wrong time!

In this Pitch Creator session, we compare growth capital strategies across different business types, stages of company maturity, and business models. To get a better perspective, we will also be putting ourselves in the shoes of equity investors and debt lenders to understand how they evaluate opportunities.


The 3 Business Pitch Strategy

Master the Framework and Leverage AI

Many founders start their fundraising journey by trying to create a pitch deck - a time-consuming and frustrating approach that often leads to founder burnout.

The reality is that pitch decks are only one piece of the puzzle. To successfully raise equity capital from angel investors and venture capital firms (as well as secure grants or bank loans), founders need three distinct types of business pitches:

  1. Attention grabber (elevator pitch)

  2. Investment summary (read-me pitch)

  3. Pitch deck (listen-to-me pitch)

In this Pitch Creator session, you will learn:

  • A proven framework (refined since 2014 by investors who have deployed over $1B) to efficiently craft all three types of business pitches required to raise capital.

  • How and when to leverage AI for feedback.
