Description
Welcome to my course!I am a former C-level banking executive and 3x startup founder who has sourced over $500,000,000 in debt and equity funding for entrepreneurs. In this course, I will share with you what I have learned about startups including how to design them in such a way that they are more attractive to investors.Using these lessons my clients have raised large sums of money from investors. Sometimes in less than few weeks after working with me!Just look at what Anita had to say about our time together...."We hired Jonathan in the fall to help pull together an investor packet to raise funding for a hotel we were buying and renovating. He was our sounding board against our projections, ensuring they were reasonable and accurate for the hotel industry. He reviewed our pitch deck and refined our message.He was always reachable, went above and beyond, and a pleasure to work with. Would definitely hire him again.His efforts helped us secure over $1mm of funding in a few short weeks."My results with Anita have been repeated time and time again. Just look at what Brian had to say."Jonathan Patrick provided business coaching to help with a business valuation, business restructuring, and negotiate 1/3 share of the corporation to a new partner. Mr. Patrick was extremely professional in his engagement, timely in responsiveness, and highly effective in his communication. The advise he shared was spot-on (based on a strong base of knowledge and experience) and proved essential to the negotiations in which I was engaged. He was supportive throughout the process and helped me to negotiate a win-win situation for all parties. I highly recommend his services."While raising over $1,000,000 in a few weeks is not the norm, it does happen. Especially when you work with someone who understands the process. I can't guarantee you will be able to land investors, no one can.But, I am confident that the information you will learn in this course will increase your chances of being "INVESTOR READY"!
