Most founders bury investors under detail.
The best ones make it simple to say yes. Try this: explain your business in one breath β€” who it’s for, what it fixes, and why it’ll grow fast. Clarity is confidence.

The business - Business Simples It's for early-stage founders and their teams, it helps them design their business for growth, including helping get the life blood funding. It'll grow fast because this is always essential but never a core competency! 😁
If you had one top tip...
What is your one top tip for developing a business that grows and attracts investment? I asked Guy this question and his answer was: "Map your start-up journey on one page, and get crystal clear on your path to launch." He then broke down the process to get that one page. If you would like to see that breakdown, reply with Yes in the comments and I'll turn it into a downloadable PDF for you. We'll also be running a live webinar with Q&A soon, so keep an eye out for that. You can also join our mailing list at https://www.businesssimples.com/newsletter

Watch businesses getting acquired
I recently discovered Acquire.com via a Podcast. It's a platform advertising businesses available for acquisition. More interestingly, being on their mailing list lets you see businesses being acquired and for how much. πŸ’· To be ready for acquisition, you're going to need funding to get to profitability and position yourself for an exit - even if you don't plan to exit: building with an exit in mind is a strong way to build a business. We have a free event coming up which will help you get there and expert tuition to make it a reality. Stay tuned and tell anyone you know starting a business to join us here on Skool for free: https://www.skool.com/fundmybusiness πŸ”₯
