When it comes to giving progress reports to their investors, I firmly believe founders need to have a bit of a shift in perspective and start seeing the benefits of doing so. Let me tell you why.

Biggest turn off in a pitch deck is when a founder has a “exit strategy” slide. Most investors aren't looking to invest in quick exits—because that doesn't exist. They want to invest in $100B+ outcomes that change the world.

We recently had the privilege of sitting down with Nick Russell, the Managing Partner of Tuckerman Capital, for an insightful conversation about the future of the middle market. With over 20 years of experience in private equity and a deep understanding of market dynamics, Nick shared his perspectives on the key drivers, risks, and opportunities that will shape the next 12 months. His expertise offers invaluable guidance for independent sponsors navigating this competitive landscape. Nick's top tips for Independent Sponsors: 1. Specialize: Avoid being a generalist. Focus on a specific sector to build deep expertise and a strong reputation. 2. Find Your Niche: Identify a unique niche within your chosen sector that is underserved or has high growth potential. 3. Develop an Investment Thesis: Go beyond deal-making. Create a clear and compelling investment thesis that outlines your strategy, vision, and value proposition.

Lots of clients are coming to me with an idea of who they want to invest in, without thinking about the bigger picture. When a company performs well or makes the news, people flock to buy their stocks. For first-time investors, this can lead to an all-eggs-in-one-basket approach, which is a rookie mistake, to say the least. Any financial adviser worth their salt will tell you how important diversification is and the importance of spreading assets across different classes. Helping you ride out the highs and lows of the market, limit risk, and achieve higher returns, diversification is the golden rule for any investment strategy. #InvestmentDiversification #InvestmentAdvice #DiversifiedInvesting #InvestmentTips

Here’s a secret for founders: Send “investor updates” even before you have any investors. The audience can be anyone you have an existing relationship with who you think might be interested in investing. Investors like to “invest in lines not dots.” Meaning, they like to see how you operate instead of one or two pitch meetings and then investing. Not only is this an exercise that’s useful to your investors, but sending regular updates also benefits you as a founder. Regular investor updates allow you to take a step back from the day-to-day minutia and reflect on trends, opportunities and struggles over the past month or quarter. It’s a necessary reflection when every day may feel like you’re putting out fires.
