With small businesses in development every day across the world, any entrepreneur knows that competition is fierce and that, without conscientious planning and business strategy, a small business can face bankruptcy and failure in a snap.

In fact, one of the most commonly cited reasons for small business failure is a lack of capital, so we don’t need to tell you how important it is to seek out business investors and pitch successfully to investment companies! The following four tips are a great place to start.

Embrace conviction.

If your potential investors don’t see complete confidence in your pitch, they won’t be convinced. Make sure that your pitch is full of passion and excitement—these powerful emotions are more contagious than you think, and potential investors will be more likely to act when they’re moved by your mission and goals.

Often, it helps to develop your pitch into a story, which will be even more likely to hook investors into believing in your business and wanting it to succeed.

Keep it simple.

However, be wary of simplifying your pitch so much that you lose the specificity necessary for a successful pitch. The best pitches are both brief and exact, full of critical details that will set your business venture apart while avoiding off-topic rambles.

Anticipate questions (then answer them).

When practicing the presentation of your pitch, don’t forget to spend time imagining the types of questions your potential investors will ask after your presentation. Be your own devil’s advocate, and prepare to answer these questions effectively. Include answers to commonly expected questions as a part of your presentation practice.

Develop your pitch with an Online Business Coach.

We can’t understate the value of having multiple pairs of eyes look over your pitch and critique it to ensure that it has reached its fullest potential. Stepping back from your work and listening to other viewpoints is one of the best things you can do to develop a killer pitch, and it’s all the better if you’re asking for help from an Expert Business Coach!

By having regular online business coaching sessions while you seek business capital, you’ll receive personalized attention and professional advice tailored exactly to your goals.

Don’t wait to secure the investment you need for success. Whether you’ve just begun to develop your pitch or if you’re in the final stages of preparation and just need some help to practice and tweak your hard work, browse through our list of Online Business Coaches and book a session.
