Fundraising requires a special kind of mindset as it can be quite a frustrating experience. In many ways it resembles dating.. this presentation lays out why.
Note: This slideshare is of Version 1.0 published in 2015, Version 2.0 was published in 2021.
The first version was published on a free-but-donate, effectively on the basis that you made a donation to Resurgo Spear if you enjoyed it. In that spirit, it will continue to be freely available (although some of the examples are now dated). v2.0, the latest version of the book, is available at: https://fundraisingfieldguide.com It has many more updated examples, content, and references.
The Fundraising Field Guide was written to help early-stage tech startup founders decipher and navigate the fundraising process. It is based on a collection of blog posts published on my site thedrawingboard.me and has been published using Reedsy, a marketplace for self-publishers to connect with an online community of editors, illustrators and marketers. The book provides an overview of the common challenges experienced by entrepreneurs when going through the funding process.
I hope you enjoy it!

The father of all demos: how to make a product demo that stands out Moriya Kassis
For a startup, there is almost nothing more powerful than a great product demonstration.
When done correctly, a demo allows the customer to see and feel how things will be better if they buy (and worse if they don't). And so, good demos don't have to be perfect for the product. They have to be perfect for the audience.
Learn the best practices of the Product Demo: What should you know? How should you prepare? What is the Just Right amount of work for you to do? Also, how to deliver both the best product and the best message to go with it?
As it's easy to mess up a Demo, learn how to do it in an interactive session that moves you fast forward to an outcome.
