Please don't make investors cry by showing them a hockey stick shaped graph that shows how your company is going to turn over more money than Google, Apple and MicroSoft in 5 years by capturing one percent of the Chinese Market. If you have done your financial forecast correctly, you will be well prepared for questions that will come your way from investors about forecasted return on investment. By the end of this slideshow you will understand the difference between the financial model that makes you look credible without paying a finance director. and the one that will make you look like a plonker aka Rodney Trotter. You financial model is the paint-by-numbers version of your business plan. Once you have the spreadsheet ready you need to start with where you are today, follow a bottom up approach rather than a top down, fill in the funding gaps, reality check it on your competition, then paint a realistic exit.]]>

Your business plan is the document between you and the investors money... If it is not presented in a way that they will read it, then they will give you a polite 'adios'. When writing your business plan, please do not use one of those business plan templates that you find for ‘free’ with a Google search. In almost all cases, those templates are plans that have been written with a bank in mind - they are boring and not exciting to investors. By the end of this slideshow, you will know how to put together a business plan that gets viewed, read and watched. We will show you how to create a business plan that gets investors attention without the business consultant bill, and screams that you are investment ready.]]>

By the end of this presentation you will understand the tax schemes that make investing in you an easy decision without paying the accountant bill. We also lay out the correct steps for applying step-by-step so you do not get in trouble with HMRC and lose your SEIS qualification for your investors.]]>

If you are like us, you would rather chop off your leg than listen to a lawyer talking about shareholder agreements, articles of association, drag along and tag along, pre-emption rights and the rest... But, when you take on investors, you need to update the setup of your company... ...if you don't, this will cause problems later as your business grows. By the end of this slide show you will have a getter understanding of which documents you need to update, and how to get the company setup right before you pitch investors without the legal bill, to give you and the investors the optimum level of protection, without wanting to chop off your leg too. 1. You need to get the investment terms right 2. You need to determine the voting rights of investors. 3. You need to issue the right type of shares to get full tax efficiency 4. You need to plan how to protect yourself when an exit happens 5. You need to pitch in a compliant way without breaking the law. Tweet @BankToTheFuture if you have more questions.]]>
