1 Progressive Milestones
Mapping your key activities to measurable milestones that will compel investors.
2 Product-Market Fit
This is the process of exploring, testing, and ultimately confirming that there’s an audience for your product or service – an exact target. Investors want proof that you’ve ascertained a solid solution for a specific, defined, vetted market.
3 Business Model
Product-market fit informs the careful development of your exact business structure. It is essential to investors that your business model is well reasoned, scalable, and sustainable.
4 Proven Discipline
Demonstrated discipline is one of the most underrated attributes of successful entrepreneurs. Are you able to operate a business efficiently and conscientiously? Will you take care of others’ money? Spending exorbitantly on overhead or moving faster than resources allow take companies down – and investors’ money with it.
5 Financial Clarity
It’s the question that keeps investors awake at night: Are entrepreneurs clear on where their time, energy, and dollars are best dispersed? WEST challenges you to demonstrate a fiscally focused and responsive disposition to the numbers. Prove as much, and you are operating in the top 5% of founders seeking investment.
