Venture preferences
Financial modeling can be done for all sorts of different reasons.
To plan hiring
To prep for an acquisition
To support a board decision
To explore different pricing strategies
But most folks who sign up for my Startup Financial Modeling 101 course are interested in it for one of two reasons:
They're a founder interested in fundraising
Or a finance person helping a founder raise
And because this is the case, we spend a fair amount of time in class talking about
What investors want to see in a startup financial model.
I've been thinking about this focus a lot lately,
As I work on refreshing my courses, creating a shorter version, and honing in on different use cases.
And one thing I've created that I think could be really helpful
Is Cheat Sheets.
So, as a Daily CFO reader, I'm inviting you to be my guinea pig!
This is one of many new one-pager resources I’ll be rolling out for course takers,
Designed to help you remember key lessons from class,
And how you can apply them in your model.
