Notas do Editor
- DO YOU UNDERSTAND HOW THE PIECES FIT TOGETHER? Don’t assume we’re expert in your markets (although, we do apply previous experience in yours or related markets to make sure what you’re saying makes sense). We’re looking to be educated and inspired (if not deluded). Do you understand the underlying market dynamics and how those different pieces work together? What is occurring in the market that sets the stage for your opportunity? ARE YOU PLUGGED INTO THE PROBLEM? IS THE PROBLEM BIG ENOUGH? To then be able to clearly, succinctly, compellingly articulate the agonizing pain being experienced by the customer. Maybe you’ve been the customer. Maybe you’ve served the customer. Maybe you’ve researched the heck out of the customer. We’re looking for a penetrating, insightful and thoughtful understanding of the customer’s needs. Because, for a business to have a chance, your offering must be a “must have” not a “nice to have”. Otherwise, you’ll be spending significant time and money convincing them that they need the product.
- We’re tired of seeing these BCG grids.
- We’re looking for hard to do and hard to replicate. It’s the only thing a little company has in the face of an inhospitable environment. And, even if you have this, it only gives you a 6 to (maybe) 18 lead. Explain each section. WHEN YOU CLICK - ANIMATION It is a red flag to hear “there is unlimited demand for our unreleased product.” There are plenty of embarrassing examples, some of them ours, that had a big splash and a big crash – WebVan. They were built in advance of demand. The spent millions upon millions promoting and creating brands in an effort to convince customers that they needed this product.
- Do you really understand the business? Explain each section.
- Now that we’ve read the entire plan or listened to the entire presentation (the claims you’ve made), we’re now going to look at the numbers to see if you were telling the truth. Does it all make sense? Does it all tie together? Will the line items in the financials correlate with everything you’ve said about the market, the business and the model?
