Program

Creating and Delivering a Dynamic Investment Presentation

Investors may see hundreds of business plans each month, but they only make time to see a handful of entrepreneurs and hear their presentation.  For this reason, delivering a succinct and compelling presentation is one of the most critical components in being able to successfully raise funds.  

This morning program will be lead by two local experts who have counseled countless entrepreneurs regarding their presentations and plans.  The session will be packed with examples from Spoken Impact's library of investment presentations as well as a video of an actual presentation. 

Essential Elements of an Investor Presentation, Business Plan and Business - Matt Noah, CEO, NetSuds.com, Inc.  -   Matt will cover the importance of a solid management team, a differentiable technical or market position, a large addressable market size and a convincing "go to market" sales strategy. You will learn the relative importance of these factors and how to explain to investors how each of these elements fit in to a cohesive, understandable plan with a convincing exit strategy for investors.

Essential Presentation Skills for a Winning Investor Presentation - Joan Moser, CEO, Spoken Impact.  -  Joan will cover how to take the essential elements discussed in the first session and create an exciting, convincing presentation that will have investors lining up to fund your venture.  Numerous case studies will be presented on pitches that have worked and those that have not and why.  Common mistakes made by entrepreneurs will be pointed out and replaced by winning recipes for successful fundraising presentations.   Included will be a video of a ten-minute presentation that was successful in raising funds. 

Attendees responded very positively to Spoken Impact's Investment Presentation workshop.  We would definitely have Spoken Impact back to conduct the program again.

Spoken Impact gave a very insightful presentation to our group of CEOs and CFOs.  They provided numerous helpful hints for powerful, concise and meaningful pitches and power point presentations. All too often, presentations are missed opportunities  Spoken Impact is the missing link for entrepreneurs to tell their story so that it is heard!.
