Startup Company Steps to Fundraising Success Infographic

Startup Company Steps to Fundraising Success – Infographic

I’ve worked with thousands of startup companies over the last three decades and I have learned that almost every time anyone starts a new company, it seems like there are a nearly infinite number of steps, or milestones, that have to be finished in order to start implementing their vision.

The following Startup Company Steps to Fundraising Success Infographic distills down all these overwhelming steps –  from that first glimmer of a concept to raising funding for your startup company – into 53 discrete, major and semi-major Milestones that most startup companies have to properly complete if they are going to successfully seek investor funding.

You will probably find it very helpful to carefully read each of the following milestones so that you understand the implications of scope and resource requirements for each one.

A lot of startup company entrepreneurs overlook many of these critical milestones and jeopardize their probability of success.

Be different.

Understand the full implications of each of the following 53 milestones and how each one of them relates very specifically to your own company.

(You can also download a PDF version of this Infographic by clicking on the small image to the right.)

What Is Your Current “Point A” Milestone On Your Startup Path To Success?

Here are a few questions that you probably need to answer without arm-waving:

1. What is your current status on your quest for a Post-Funding Point B?
2. How far have you already gotten down this path?
3. How many of these Milestones were left off your original startup action list?
4. How many of these Milestones have you already skipped in your urgency to get to your most desired Point B?
5. What is currently the most major Milestone blocking your path and impeding your progress?
6. What outside expertise, experience and skill sets would help you the most, right now, to successfully accelerate your journey to Point B?

You might, just maybe, find some insights by following the path in this infographic:

Overwhelmed?

If the work required for all 53 milestones overwhelms or intimidates you, you’re not alone. Many entrepreneurs, particularly those who are setting up their first company, feel the same way.

Part of this comes from just the amount of work that needs to be accomplished. Another part of this comes from facing milestones that require expertise and experience that you don’t yet have.

The good news is that I offer a special service to help you successfully accomplish ALL 53 milestones so that you can get to your post-funding Point B.

My Chief ImpleMentor Consulting Service – How I Can Help You with All 53 Milestones

One of my unique specialties that helps a lot of my clients is a service I call my “Chief ImpleMentor Consulting Service.”

I start with a complete review of every possible detail of your strategies, tactics, action plan, and sales, marketing and business plan – along with your legally required fundraising documents – to make sure that everything for your capital raise is genuinely Ready for Prime Time – before you pitch even the first prospective investor.

If these aren’t yet done, I can help you do them.

If these aren’t Ready for Prime Time, I can help you fix them so that they are genuinely Ready for Prime Time.

If you need help with your fundraising, I can help get your investment offering in front of an appropriate subset of the thousands of Angel investors in my network.

I am here to help you through as many of the 53 milestones that will help you with setting up your startup company, finding your fundraising and helping you accelerate your path to success.

My business model is precisely the same as most successful attorneys: I work against a prepaid retainer that is refreshed as long as the client continues to want to work with me. My services are available on an hourly basis at my Standard rate of $250 per hour. We can get started with a ten-hour initial retainer of only $2,500.

Simple. Direct. Legal. Very affordable. No long-term commitment. Highly cost-effective for action-oriented startup companies.

How many hours of my consulting will you need?

This depends on a multitude of issues such as: what’s already been done; is what you have already done good enough “as is” to motivate prospective investors; do I do everything or do you and your team do some or most of the heavy lifting; etc.?

Based on my three decades of doing this, my intuition is that even just 10-20 hours of my help, while far from totally comprehensive, could be pivotal for a large majority of the mission-critical fundraising situations that come across my digital inbox.

My goal is to use whatever method my client chooses so that I can help get them to their Post-Funding Point B as fast as possible.
