Navigating the fundraising landscape as a startup can be a formidable challenge. The timing of your fundraising efforts, coupled with securing favourable terms, can significantly influence the trajectory of your venture. For early-stage startups or those experiencing steady revenue growth, it is imperative to focus on the aspects that distinctly differentiate your startup: 1. Team Expertise 👥: Highlight the unique competencies and experiences of your team members. 2. Financial Projections 📊: Develop compelling financial narratives, supported by robust numerical data and visual aids. These elements serve as your strategic advantages.

If your method is more efficient and more accurate than pretotyping, please teach me.
