Business Model
 This is how you will make money, who pays you, and
gross margins.
 In this section, you need to be passionate about
revenue, profit, and volume growth.
 Sustainable advantage over the competition (address
how) and highlight barriers to entry which will keep
your competitors at bay.
Competition
List and describe your competition, direct and
indirect, including customer alternatives.
Asserting you have no competition is not
credible. Also address sustainable advantage
against specific competition.
 Main Competitors (Traditional “Product”)
Total Revenues: $426 Million

Marketing, sales, and partners
 Describe your market penetration strategy, sales channels,
pricing, and strategic partnerships. Here is also a good
place for a rollout timeline with key milestones. Convince
investors that you have lined up sales channels, strategic
partners, and a viable marketing strategy.
 Be careful with assertions like “We have strong interest
from a major customer.” The mention of unsigned
contracts normally takes away more credibility than it
adds. You can bolster this position by including a Letter of
Intent (LOI), contract summaries, or even testimonials.
