Startup fundraising is hard—especially these days. It’s even harder when you don't have a compelling story or effective visuals to help investors answer a few critical questions:

Why this?

Why you?

Why now?

I can be your VC / angel fundraising sherpa so you can tell a compelling story, with compelling visuals, to close your fundraise and get back to building your business.

Phase 1 - Strategic Narrative [Weeks 1–2]

Either over Zoom or async using Loom, you’ll answer a series of questions about your business, your aspirations, your fundraise, and the current state of your pitch. We’ll use that to create a strategic narrative together which frames what you’re building as essential and inevitable. It’s a story about your company that can (and should!) inform how you position it with customers, how you recruit talent, and how you raise capital.

Phase 2 - Deck Creative System [Weeks 2–3]

Next I’ll create a pitch deck creative system based on your brand guidelines (or lack thereof, that's cool). In your tool of choice {Figma, Keynote, Pitch, etc.} I’ll create a series of slide templates for various purposes (cover, section titles, three-column, product screenshots, data visualization, etc.). And we’ll use drag and drop placeholders as much as possible so you’ll have those available to make edits and additions on the fly.

Phase 3 - Deck & Outreach Deliverables [Weeks 3–4];

Last, we’ll use that company story to outline your fundraising pitch and the materials and visuals required. We’ll create a pitch meeting deck and work with you to revise it until it sings. We’ll draft forwardable email templates, abridged send ahead decks, and elevator pitch outlines so you’re prepared for all scenarios.

[Optional] Investor Funnel Creation

If you’re new to this (and we all were once), I can help you figure out which investors to target and how to put together an investor funnel to run a tight process.
