Whether or not you are approaching venture investors or simply trying to convince someone of the attractiveness of your company, you need to have a well thought out presentation that tells the story about your business in a compelling and exciting way. Nobody is going to invest in or join your company if you cannot effectively explain why they should be spending their time and money to participate in it.
Entrepreneurs often come up short when explaining how they are going to achieve potential customer awareness of their new product or service. Generalities about widespread advertising, appropriate trade shows and email campaigns will not impress potential investors and will leave the impression that you really don’t know how to find customers. When explaining this aspect of your business, you need to bring your marketing programs to life with specific targets and expected results that are focused on the sweet spot of your target market.
