When startups
are seeking new business funding, it
is important for them to understand exactly how investors think & analyze
opportunities. Though there are numerous factors that investors will take into
consideration before channelling any funds into a start up venture, there are 3
aspects that stand out very prominently and a subset of questions follow.
However, it is almost mandatory for these three factors to be met as well as
agreed upon before they consider the proposal. Here are the 3 points that are a
must in any start up sales pitch:
Is This a Future Billion-Euro Company?
Whenever any
venture capitalist hears an entrepreneur pitch, this is the first question they
are asking themselves. There is a definite chasm in between the way any
entrepreneur views his/her company and the manner in which opportunities are
analyzed by investors. Venture capitalists have to hit it big and they must
invest in companies that will potentially hit the bulls-eye.
They are
completely aware of the possibility that a large number of their investments
might end up having not-so-fabulous returns and some might even sink to the
depths of the ocean. However, potentially, the market size might just support a
really big company. If the total addressable market of a startup is only a
couple of billion Euros, VC’s are going to cold shoulder it (There are of
course numerous other kinds of investors who will show an interest in smaller
outcomes).
What is The Mettle of the Team?
In early-stage
startups, the team is the key to analyzing any potential success of the company.
Investors will first bet on the team even before the pre-product stage and
before any massive product adoption takes place. That is exactly why an entrepreneur
with a proven track record has a higher probability of raising capital than one
who is venturing into this space for the first time.
Teams who have
actually worked together and created and launched successful products are
considered to be even better contenders. Some find it surprising that a pre-product
& pre-revenue company receives venture funding. But delving a little deeper
will reveal that there is a powerhouse team behind it. Venture Capitalists are
top-of-the-rung when it comes to judging and analyzing businesses and their
early bet will almost always be on people.
Is this the right time?
This is the
last of the triad of basic questions. Venture Capitalists will always consider
market timing. They will scope the market and try to ascertain whether the time
is perfect for that particular product to be a launched and become a blockbuster.
Essentially a VC funded business must be able to attain massive growth very
quickly and growth is all about perfect timing.
The fire of
disruptive ideas and technologies must also have the right tailwinds for the
fuel of their new business funding
to generate growth. Entrepreneurs need to understand and then include certain
exciting statistics and market data which will impress venture capitalists
enough to sink their funds into their business.
