Description
**UPDATED MONTHLY WITH NEW VIDEOS, SPREADSHEETS & GUIDES**
In this course, you will learn about venture capital and how to crush your next venture pitch. In the last couple of years, I have been giving hundreds of venture pitches. One year ago, I switched sides and started investing in companies. In this course, I want to show you, how to develop convincing pitch decks and how to present them accurately. I believe venture pitching is not a talent, it is a skill! Any skill can be acquired. And, I want to help you do just that. This course includes everything you need to know about venture pitching. We will start with the basics of venture capital and will work our way up until we understand the mechanisms behind a venture capitalist's decision to invest in your business and will focus together on how to be as convincing as possible while we pitch. In this course, we will focus on the following topics:
1. BASICS OF VENTURE CAPITAL - In this part of the course, we will have a look at how to apply for venture capital and why venture capital is so important. I will furthermore describe to you the focus of a venture capitalist and go step by step through a venture capital application with you.
2. THE 10 STEP VENTURE PITCHING FORMULA FOR PROFESSIONAL PITCH DECKS - This formula, formerly only used by entrepreneurs from Silicon Valley, will now be taught in this course. I will show you in detail how to use this 10 step formula in order to nail every pitch.
3. CONFIDENCE & EXPRESSIONS - If you want to succeed, you need to be calm and factual, you need leadership qualities and a clear plan in mind of where your business will be in 6, 12, 18, 24, 30 or 30 months. I will help you develop great confidence in yourself and train you to become a pitching expert.
4. PITCH DECKS ANALYZED - I will show you the original pitch decks of companies such as YOUTUBE or LINKEDIN and we will together analyze them. Afterwards, you will be able to pitch just like Zuckerberg and Gates did many years ago.
Knowing how to pitch could change your life. If you want to build a company but simply do not have the money to do so, you might be applicable to apply for venture capital. If you want to scale your business or want to move into new markets, you perhaps should again think about applying for venture capital. Learning how to convince venture capitalists and understanding their focus thus might help you a lot. Here are 5 more reasons why applying for venture capital actually makes sense:
1. BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES - You have a brilliant idea but do not have the money to build the product needed in order to cash in? Then, you should apply for venture capital.
2. IT HAS NEVER BEEN BETTER THAN RIGHT NOW - There has never been as much venture capital as right now in the market. If you do not take your chance now, and you wait, you perhaps not will ever get the opportunity again to get as much venture capital as right now.
3. THE OPPORTUNITY MAY DRY UP - We are in an expansion now for already 7 1/2 years and very soon this field will dry up and it will get very hard for you to receive any venture capital, so better act now!
4. BLANK SPACE - Especially in the app industry, there is an incredible amount of blank space (technologies/application that have not been invented/created yet). If you develop one of these apps, you will cash in massively! And in order to develop/invent these technologies/apps, you need venture capital!
5. NOT PAYING BACK - Most venture capital does not need to be paid back. Of course, you will face some consequences if you waste the venture capital, like you will not receive any more venture capital in the future, nevertheless, it is better than getting a loan from the back and being in debt thousands of dollars.
