Traction- the part of success earned from market
Traction is a crucial point to get right although it’s quite challenging. Investors measure your business progress and scale through this key point. In all board meetings where bard seats are allocated for investors, traction is the first point to be discussed. Stay conservative in your market share and make proper projections. If any new startup misses projections by a large gap for a long period, the purpose of having a joint board meeting gets devastated. Make sure to leave room for people to think the perfect ways that you have explained to them about how your business will scale and take growth with technology. Don’t set skeptical but give real-life examples as to how your ideas can pitch and generate huge market response and turnover.

Technology- how much growth you can accomplish to scale
Tech is a critical component for any business even if the business is not tech-centric. How much technology is being used will determine how much growth is calculated in the long run. The return of your talent and newly pitched ideas is based on the technology, how you use and where you put it. The three stages of tech utilization are catch up - the company tech stack, support stack, communications and operations stack, sales up to technology levels, clean up – the operational debt, technical debt, administrative holes, and other inefficiencies and innovate – new tech founders who allocate100% of their tech spend to innovation.
To start any startup is a big challenging task as it comes with the accumulation of funds and collection of enough money to fund through and invest when necessary. However, when the funds come in, one doesn’t know exactly what to do with them. After doing all the hard work and deploying all capital, an entrepreneur knows how to do business and what way to scale it further but the main issue is when every startup is funded, still many entrepreneurs are trying or failing to achieve their milestone. This is when investors reject further investment or lack the energy to further funding for the already set-up business. Let us talk about the best funding plans that is the use of the famous four T’s:
While thinking you want to fund your business or seek the help of the right investors to fuel your business growth, it is very crucial to realize how you are going to make the best use of it. Before beginning with a fundraising cycle, make your ideas clear and concise.
Talent- bring rich experience into a core business model
Investors fund a business that is much more talent and purpose–oriented. It is the first best quality where money gets allocated. To hit an idea, the entire team can plan on how to nurture their talent into something productive. Better talents get loftier goals and thus better returns. There are 3 modes of talent- firstly, the talent that you need right away to fill the gaps in your business model and set skills to accelerate output. Secondly, the talent needed is to capitalize and increase the outputs from your first model through the addition of resources, marketing and operations. Thirdly, talent involves the addition of resources to finance, customer success, and HR as well as maintaining the others modes to function.
Time- the most precious add on
Time is the most wanted metric that assesses the value of your business. Before getting into any new investment, you have to thin about how much time you can put into it and how much the time put in can lead you to success. The investment will go to zero if you find the difference between the cash on hand with expected revenue and the burn rate. This graph begins to descend sharply once the money is put to work and takes considerable time before the put money can bring results or generate profits for your business. So, when everyone in a company has united put their time and effort to hit the best and bring out the most, make sure investing time is done accurately into the right thoughts and decisions.
