Dear Founder.
It's great to see that you are on fire for your ideas.
And to be honest, without this enthusiasm you wouldn't be able to keep going.
We have already checked your investment readiness.
We have prepared a Valuation Report.
You have learned more about how investors think.
You have practiced your pitch in front of the camera and discussed it with your team and mentors.
You captivate the audience with your love for the project.
After years in dependent employment, you enjoy the newfound freedom of self-employment.
And now you must learn that this freedom cannot be unlimited. You must pull together with your co-founders, develop an open communication culture with your entire team.
And on top of all of that you should deliver structured reports to your stakeholders. ???? Why?
I can well understand if that annoys you. Sometimes it feels like they're trying to put out your flames.
Now:
Imagine your flames igniting a forest fire. Everything gets out of control.
And then imagine how your investors save you from exactly that, because your reports show where they can help.
With their decades of experience, they help you focus your energy and let your flames become effective for your goals, just like in a power plant. This is risk management and resilience training in one.
There is no freedom without responsibility. Search for "the human contract".
