One Founder To Another

06/01/2024

The first of 2024.

The LifeLab Podcast invited me to discuss me and ONE MOTO - Electric Vehicles but more the interview was about:
• My backstory
• The ambition
• My ‘mistakes’
• The people who challenged and inspired me
• What success looks like
• The future and
• My proudest moment (which hit me emotionally).

A founders’ emotional connection to starting, running and scaling a business runs deep, the tenacity is unwaivering and comes with great rewards and trying times.

The question “what’s your proudest moment” was the first time I’ve been asked this, which took me back to a memory I’d parked, and I openly admit it hit me emotionally.

Too candid? Let me know.

When building a pitch deck you need to ensure you are delivering your business, your values, brand and of course the detail. You’ll find yourselves having multiple versions of your pitch deck, the three decks I keep in my data room are: One page summary Pitch Deck (10-12 slides) Detailed pitch deck (40-50 slides) You will also (unfortunately) be told by each investor for an iteration, yet, this is very subjective and can lead you onto a path of investing time where it may not avail tremendous return, so include a structured document as an addendum, with FAQs testimonials, exit strategy and other requests....
