Scoring angel investment for startups in New Zealandnzangels
How can you get investment from angel investors in New Zealand? This presentation covers the basics for how to prepare your business, how to approach investors, and what you can expect from the process
As an entrepreneur, you need to develop a long-term financing strategy for your business. This session helps you determine what financing approach is right for you.
Key topics covered: bootstrapping, angel investment
Are you considering finding a business partner or want to make your existing partnerships more successful? Start with a Best Partner Profile™. Then make sure you've dealt with: the agreement, liability, responsibilities,conflicts, and controls.
It is a given that we will all exit our business at some point - willingly or not! - and it is never to soon to start planning that exit.
There is a link at the end of this deck to the associated blog and webinar recording
On Friday, July 31st I presented this Slideshare to more than 50 entrepreneurs who are part of the latest OnDeck Fellowship cohort. We walked through how to run a fundraising process and how I run my own investment process as an angel investor.
This presentation was delivered to a group of 40 Founders/CEO's and a few salespeople who want to know what they should be thinking about before they hire salespeople.
Broad address of the prevailing thought processes, techniques and methodologies for early adopter sales.
Most investors ask startups to send a pitch deck over before a meeting, a lot of them pass and say no on the strength of that pitch deck.
We do things a little bit differently and we've actually made a pitch deck to sell ourselves to startups. We're Founder first and we see ourselves as privileged to be buying some equity in your company.

Partnership gets a lot of lip-service: we want to be loved for what we’re doing now, we want them to change, not us, we want them to give it to us; we don’t want to earn it….What it really takes to be partners? What kind of skills and knowledge partners got to have and what behaviours they have to be engaged in?
You might feel the signs of broken business relationship, but it is hard to diagnose. If you observe that between you (or your organization) and you business partner there are occasions of interpersonal conflicts, “us and them” mentality, defensiveness, finger pointing, non-constructive criticism, there is a good chance that you relationship need repair. You can fix them, if you follow the right steps.Business Relationship Management is partially art and partially science. First, you need to earn trust in the eyes of your partner and prove your credibility and second, you need to develop right competencies of yours and capabilities of your organization.

Understanding User Needs and Satisfying ThemAggregage
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs
