Getting started is easy!
Our MSPs are a great way to make fast progress across a wide-array of areas including: Product Management, Fundraising Prep, Grants, Marketing, Sales, Exit Planning, IT Tools, Legal Review, HR Planning, and Board Service.
PMF Validation - MSP0
This is our simplest way of getting started. Validating your Product Market Fit is essential for early-stage companies. This is the opportunity to make adjustments. We help build the business model canvas, perform customer discovery, and ensure product to market alignment.
Product Workshop - MSP1
Our Product Workshop is designed to assist early-stage and growth-stage companies with reviewing, revising, developing, and structuring a product strategy that is precisely aligned to customers, investors, and liquidity targets. We will help with PMF, MVP, PRDs, MRDs, VoC, 1-to-n prioritization, and developing a defensible roadmap, correlating it to revenue models.
Pitch Decks - MSP2
Our PD construction is a ground-up, clean sheet approach. It's easy to make a deck look great - we have talented graphic designers for that. But, what's equally important is that it resonates with potential investors. Most PDs do not do this effectively. More than just a PD, we develop a Hollywood grade, click-by-click narrative written in the correct vernacular
Fundraising Prep - MSP3
Before a company begins fund-raising, financial documentation including Cap Tables, P&L, Projections, and Use of Proceeds must be thoroughly vetted and properly structured and in a format that is conducive to raising capital. We provide professional and defensible financial review and modelling, the right level of detail, and detailed supporting information. Additionally we create professional charts suitable for Pitch Decks.
NextGen Grants - MSP4
Our Grants team has an approach to securing non-dilutive capital that's revolutionary. We will assess company viability for grant funding from various local, state, and federal resources. Grants are non-dilutive and never have to be paid back. We cast a wide, but targeted net. We focus on elements of impact or SDG alignment where possible. We work with grant influencers and political lobbyists as well.
Marketing Strategy - MSP5
Marketing is the stimulus for sales, fundraising, general awareness, and ultimately liquidity. Our marketing services are comprehensive and include the critical elements such as lead-gen, demand-gem, PR, and collateral. We will produce a marketing plan, recommendations on social strategy, and information on how to measure and determine ROI of marketing spend.
Sales Planning - MSP6
Revenue is queen and king for any company. Companies need a defensible and executable revenue model and one that is realistic. It must contain a direct and indirect component. Showing revenue growth is also the best way to improve chances of successful fundraising. We create a scalable sales strategy and consider direct, indirect, OEM, and BusDev channels. We also create and test pricing and compensation. models.
Exit Planning - MSP7
Exit preparation is more complex than most things. We take the guess work out of what will be required during due diligence. We focus on post acquisition cash distribution and taxation considerations. We ensure readiness at any time. We also implement the right exit shaping/story. We start by assessing for exit readiness and then fill gaps and create a compelling,
IT Solutions - MSP8
IT tools are critical to every business. Although most tools and most storage is cloud based, companies need tools that are affordable, functional, scalable, accessible, and secure. IT processes are always considered during acquisition due diligence – getting it right out of the gate is important. After reviewing needs, we develop a strategy that is affordable, performs well, and can scale.
Legal Review - LSP1
Companies need to be protected with the correct insurances, contracts, patents, HR, and IP protections. We review and make recommendations on business insurances, M&A considerations, fundraising materials, IP protection, trademarks, trade secrets, and patent strategies. We help identify gaps and recommend go-forward legal engagement.
HR Planning - HRP1
We help companies align their business strategy with a Human Capital Strategic Plan to achieve business goals and accelerate growth milestones. Our HR Growth Assessment is used to show what key knowledge skills and abilities the company has today and provide a roadmap to achieve their projected growth plan. We address hiring plans, culture, D&I, create employee handbooks, and create org structure.
Board Service - BDP1
Our Executive Leadership Team is available to perform board services as an independent board member, board observer, or board advisor. We bring thought capital, governance, experience, and credibility to organizations. Our well-connected team makes strategic introductions that could help with revenue, raising capital, and liquidity.
