Prompt
I'm raising venture capital for my startup. Help me create a comprehensive pitch strategy by analyzing:
Market & Opportunity:
- Define the specific problem we solve and quantify the pain (how much does this problem cost our target market?)
- What's the total addressable market (TAM), serviceable addressable market (SAM), and serviceable obtainable market (SOM)?
- Why is now the right time for this solution? What market forces or trends make this urgent?
- Who are our main competitors and how are we differentiated?
Business Model & Traction:
- What's our revenue model and unit economics?
- What traction do we have? (revenue, users, partnerships, key metrics)
- What are our key assumptions and how have we validated them?
- What's our path to profitability and timeline?
Team & Execution:
- Why is our team uniquely positioned to solve this problem?
- What relevant experience, expertise, or unfair advantages do we have?
- What are our biggest execution risks and how are we mitigating them?
Funding Strategy:
- How much are we raising and what will we use it for specifically?
- What milestones will this funding help us achieve?
- What's our projected 18-24 month runway and key metrics we'll hit?
- What type of investors are we targeting and why? (stage, sector focus, check size)
Vision & Scale:
- What's our long-term vision and potential exit scenarios?
- How big can this company realistically become?
- What would need to be true for us to achieve venture-scale returns?
Please identify the weakest parts of our story and help me strengthen them. Also suggest the most compelling narrative arc for our pitch deck.
