It sounds obvious when you say it out loud: if you show an investor a big pot of gold and a low-risk path to getting that pot of gold, he/she is going to invest. In episode four of MATH 101, Troy explains how to best illustrate this in your VC pitch. If you follow this advice, your audience will be listening!

Very simple & concise – great content that clears A LOT of noise about the fundraising process – thank you!
That’s great advicet, good information for a company like Flyght club which is in the developing stage.
Helpful high-level knowledge, w/ little tactical advice
Such a good reminder that — just like in other parts of our business — it’s critical to always focus on the customer. In this case, the customer is an investor who is buying into a low-risk future where they make outsized return. Rarely do I hear investor decks framed this way, and it’s a really powerful way to rethink the narrative.
I just rewatched this, and realized after doing this for many years, that this is probably the most elegant conceptualization of what goes into evaluating a company 🙂 Thanks, Troy!
I watched it 4 times in 30 minutes. This is awesome. Going to apply it to my deck.
Many thanks.
You make it look easy, Troy! Very helpful and concise narrative.
Wouldn’t vc want to know why our path is low risk and how we keep it that way.. how do you add that flavor
