We discuss: ► The best win-win contract clause to boost your valuation ► The one thing to avoid at all costs if you don’t want stakeholders to hate you and ruin your exit ► How compromises can mess up your investment deal - and make you look stupid ► How your confidence can hurt your startup and when it’s crucial to rein it in ► That there’s more power in understanding a failure than in not understanding a success ► How not to respond when an investor adjusts your valuation downwards ► How to DD your investor and why you must ► Why bluffing your way through contractual discussions is a very bad idea - and the easy way to manage your knowledge gaps without losing the investor’s respect ► The ill effects of playing at being a founder - shit or get off the pot! ____________________________________________ If you think Daphne Postma would be a great investor for your startup, you can reach out to her here: ► Daphne's LinkedIn profile: / daphne-postma-b6620850 ____________________________________________ Get my free ebook: “7 Scientifically Proven Strategies That Get You Into More 2nd Meetings With Investors”: https://negotiating-with-goliath.com/ ____________________________________________
