Investment Memo Sprint

Turn Your Strategy Into an Investor-Ready Memo in Just 2 Weeks

Learn how to think like an investor while creating a polished document you can share during diligence.

When investors ask questions, they are not simply testing recall. They want to understand how you think, how you prioritize, and how well you can adapt your strategy to real-world challenges. Good answers demonstrate not only knowledge but judgment. They also surface assumptions that may not have been clear in your deck. Engaging thoughtfully with these questions helps you build credibility and ensures you are prepared for the kinds of challenges—and surprises—that inevitably arise in building a company.

The Problem

Fundraising often feels like answering the same investor questions on repeat. It’s often a struggle to know how much detail is enough, what excites investors, and what raises red flags. Without a clear framework, important gaps can stay hidden until they surface in investor conversations. The result is wasted time, uneven answers, and the risk of being caught off balance when the hard questions arrive.

NEW!

The Solution

In the Investment Memo Sprint, I’ll guide you step-by-step through writing a full investment memo on your own startup.

We’ll work through the same sections investors expect to see and identify what excites them, what concerns them, and how much detail they actually want.

Along the way, you’ll…

  • Produce a shareable memo that anticipates investor questions and saves you time in diligence.

  • Learn to see your company through an investor’s eyes and understand how they evaluate opportunities at your stage.

  • Surface hidden gaps or risks in your strategy before investors do by putting everything into a single, coherent framework.

  • Build confidence in telling your story with clarity and precision.

How It Works
