Raising capital as a start-up or mid-sized company can be a challenging and lengthy process, and there are several obstacles that entrepreneurs commonly face. Here are three main obstacles:
1. Limited Track Record: Start-ups often lack a proven track record, which can make it difficult to attract investors. Investors typically seek evidence of a company’s viability and potential for growth. Without a history of revenue or profitability, start-ups must rely on their business plan, product or service concept, and the expertise of their founding team to convince investors of their potential.
2. Market Competition and Saturation: Many industries are highly competitive, and investors may be hesitant to fund start-ups entering markets that are already saturated or dominated by established players. Convincing investors that your start-up has
a unique value proposition and a competitive advantage can be a significant challenge.
3. Access to Investors: Access to potential investors is another hurdle. Entrepreneurs often struggle to connect with the right investors who are interested in their industry or sector. Building a network and establishing relationships with angel investors, venture capitalists, or other funding sources can be time-consuming and requires a proactive approach.
Whilst your management team should be completely comfortable with the product and the proposition, they might lack the experience and contacts to prepare the materials to attract and secure funding… That’s where Impresario excel.
