Fellow entrepreneurs, welcome to Investment Island, where we'll dive deep into the realm of startup capital and funding. But before we embark on this leg of our journey, let's reflect on the questions we contemplated on Economics Island:
Who is your target audience, and how will your product or service benefit them? Understanding your customers is crucial for success. Reflect on the specific group of individuals who will benefit from what you have to offer and consider how your product or service will solve their problems or meet their needs.
What motivates your customers to make a purchase, and how will you appeal to those motivations? Dive into the minds of your customers and explore what drives them to buy. Reflect on how you can create offerings and marketing strategies that capture their attention and make them feel special or fulfilled.
What challenges do your customers face, and how will your product or service provide solutions? Reflect on the obstacles your target audience encounters and how your business can serve as a trusted problem solver. Consider how your innovative product or service can conquer the challenges and make a positive impact in their lives.
How will you determine the pricing of your products or services, and how does it compare to others in the market? Pricing is a critical aspect of running a business. Reflect on how you will determine the appropriate pricing for your offerings, considering factors such as costs, value to customers, and competitive pricing in the market.
To kick this one off let's watch this inspirational video of this 10-Year-Old Entrepreneur Wows Sharks With Her Baby Spoon Product as she seeks investment.
Now, it's time to brace yourselves as we navigate the unpredictable tides of finance on Investment Island.
Who will you be negotiating with?
Will you ask for a loan?
If so, what are the terms of the loan?
How will you pay back the loan?
Remember, every successful voyage begins with securing the essential provisions. So, raise your anchors, courageous entrepreneurs, and when you are ready let's chart a course towards our next destination - Production & Execution Island!
See you there!
