plays a pivotal role in deciding whether or
not you would be getting funded.
Here are a few things that you need to
keep in mind when you are presenting your
ideas. Going by these would increase your
chances of getting funded.

Begin by presenting a brief description of
your idea and by validating it with the work
the already present companies do.
You could be giving reference to the
milestones that took place in your journey.
The laurels your idea received from
stalwarts and things of that sort.

business model
True you’ve worked hard to come up with the
idea. But there’s no point going on and on about
the idea.
Your focus should instead be on the need for
your product in the market and how monetizing
on it would do you good.
Make sure you make the transition into
explaining the other aspects of your business.
5. Concrete Revenue Streams
At the end of the day what matters is how
you’ll be making money and how much.
Don’t come up with vague numbers that
represent your business. Investors are
more impressed when the figures you
present are accurate and appear tangible.

This is by far the most important aspect of
your presentation. Investors judge you by
how much you know about your potential
customer.
You need to Get to know your customers
well by personally interacting with them
before you present your ideas. Doing your
homework right could improve your
chances of getting funded.

Investors invest in your company with the
intention of pulling out after a fixed period
say 3-4 years.
You need to focus on showing them a
feasible exit strategy and a concrete Return
on Investment(ROI) for them.
