This one is an oldie but still a useful goldie! Dug this one up the other day when I was going through my archive of random articles, references, and tools I usually share with founders. Yes, I do have an archive and yes, you can call me a nerd 🤓. — In any case, this is a pretty neat tool (the Startup Growth Calculator) that was shared with me a few years back which allows you to estimate when you’ll be profitable, your breakeven (cash-flow neutral) point, and whether you need to raise additional capital or not. Seriously, it's a fun tool to play around with. Honestly, I think this is pretty useful no matter if you’re a startup or not. I’m a pretty visual guy so something like this outside of the norm of spreadsheets is always a breath of fresh air for me :) A bunch of founders have found this useful, especially those who sometimes can’t see the forest for the trees on the financial side of the business, so hope this helps!

Tell us about the best pitch you’ve received recently: at what point in their presentation did you realize you were going to invest? TechCrunch #VCInvestors said that within the first 10 minutes, successful founders had laid out: (1) how well the company was doing; (2) how big the market opportunity was; and (3) why they had an unfair advantage as founders over everyone else. It was incredibly concise, straightforward and compelling to hear. Creating an effective #pitchbook – one that connects with your #investoraudience in a clear, compelling way, will always come down to how succinct, relevant and readable your message is. Telling a story that’s simple, logical and genuine is a great place to start and Ext. Marketing can help. Reach out to us to get started. https://lnkd.in/daAB8URT

I've been studying the Blue Economy theme lately. I've been watching videos of related startups and it's making me think "what am I doing?" again. Venture investing is also basically about making a "return". I too am looking for a more "profitable" direction once I get a little more established in my career. But if venture capital is supposed to be about innovation and meaningful investment in the future, I think it will stay that way by investing in "passionate founders who won't give up," as the video says. Let's all not give up. Until the day you create the future you believe in Bigbang Angels, Inc.Bigbang Ventures Inc. #blueeconomy #investment
