You closed the round. Now comes the part that determines if they write the next one.
We're hosting a free live webinar on June 18 at 2:00 PM ET with our partners at Gust - and it's all about what happens after the check clears.
Tom Matta from Forecastr walks you through how to keep your investors engaged, what they actually want to hear from you, and the tools that make the whole process simple.

The startup P&L has quietly shifted over the last two years.
Headcount is shrinking. AI and software costs are climbing. Vendor spend is harder to track than ever. And when you walk into a raise, VCs are going to want to see that you have a handle on all of it.
This June 10, join us and Stackpack as we break down exactly how to build a model that tells a clear, defensible story before you're in the room.
We'll cover how the P&L is shifting, what that means for your next raise, and how to walk into the room with a model investors can't poke holes in.

Burn rate gives you your runway. Revenue growth rate tells you if you're heading in the right direction. You can survive on a tight budget forever, but that's not building a company.
You need to grow and control spend at the same time. That's the balance every founder has to strike.
#startupadvice #burnrate #runway #forecastr #forecastwithconfidence #revenuegrowth
If your runway dropped to 6 months today, what's the first expense you'd cut?
We asked 100 founders who've actually been through it. Come find out what they said, live at Founder Feud. 🎮
We're bringing the heat to NY Tech Week with a founder game show you didn't know you needed. Think Family Feud, the stakes feel familiar, and the answers might surprise you.

Most founders prepping for a raise think the pitch is about the story.
The story matters. But investors have heard thousands of them.
What actually earns trust in the room is knowing your numbers cold - MRR growth, CAC, LTV, churn, gross margin, TAM, burn rate and runway. All seven. Without hesitation.
Each one is answering a different question investors are asking in their head.
MRR shows whether your revenue is real and repeatable.
CAC tells them how efficiently you're growing.
LTV tells them whether that growth compounds over time.
Churn tells them whether customers are actually staying.
Gross margin tells them how much room you have to scale.
TAM tells them whether there's a big enough opportunity to generate the returns they need.
And burn rate with runway tells them you're in control of the business.
You don't need a perfect number for every metric. You need to understand what's behind each one, and be able to speak to it clearly.
We broke down all 7 - what they mean, what investors are looking for, and how to present them in a way that builds confidence: https://t.co/5rSMtinJ79

Most founders walk into investor meetings hoping it goes well.
The ones who close walk in knowing exactly how it will go.
There's a big difference between pitching and winning a round. And it comes down to what you do before, during, and after every investor conversation.

✔ How to generate real excitement from investors in your startup
✔ How to negotiate the terms of your funding agreement
✔ How to change the dynamic of your conversations with investors
✔ How to prioritize the outcomes of your round
✔ Live Q&A with real-time audience questions
If you're fundraising right now, this is the hour that pays off.

It's the game show format you know, but this time it's called Founder Feud.
The contestants built companies, and the answers came from 100 real founders.
Here's how it works 👇
⚡ Face-Off — One person from each team goes head to head for control of the board.
🎯 Play the Board — The team in control guesses the remaining answers. Three strikes and control passes.
🕵️ The Steal — Strike out and the other team gets one shot to take everything.
💰 Scoring — Answers are worth their actual survey response count. Most points after 2–3 rounds wins.
What comes up on that board is what founders actually think.
What do you think 100 founders said?
Come see if you're right. 👀
