Investor Bootcamp Recap📸 Take a look at some of the key takeaways from our first Investor Bootcamp with Anchin, Bank of America, Constellation Capital, Dwight Funding, & Emil Capital Partners! Debt Panel Takeaways: 1. Get Finances and Collateral Right Early: Work with a professional to ensure documentation is in order and collateral is managed effectively from the start, avoiding costly fixes later on. 2. Choose Wisely (Short-Term vs. Long-Term Financing): Utilize short-term options like credit cards, MCAs, and PO financing effectively until you're ready for more efficient long-term solutions such as asset-based lending or traditional bank financing. 3. Relationship Matters: The most important consideration when selecting a financing partner is the relationship. Look for a partner that understands your business and will support you in critical moments. Secondary factors include pricing, availability, and ease of use. Equity Raises Panel Takeaways: 1. Know Your Audience and Your Business: Introduction calls should be two-sided. Get to know the investor and fund (and even do some pre-work to know their angle on your deal) while also sharing your story. Be prepared to pitch, but always start by getting to know one another and then feel out the best format for the meeting. 2. Metrics Matter: Highlight key metrics such as revenue, gross margins, marketing efficiency, and unit economics to accelerate investor decision-making. Know your numbers, but don’t be afraid to involve other members of your team for more nuanced questions. Team work is a great quality! 3. Preparation Pays Off: Create a thorough dataroom, diligence packets, and regular investor updates with historical data, financial metrics and key KPIs to establish credibility and facilitate investor trust. Practice your pitch and anticipate tough questions. 4. Consumer Isn’t Going Anywhere: Great businesses will continue to secure funding, so focus first and foremost on building a great company!
