Present confidently to investors and stakeholders

;

A special occasion calls for a special slide deck.

As CFO, most of your time is spent on other things, but a key part of your job is to raise financing, whether that means increasing a credit line so you can buy that much-needed machine, issuing bonds so you can enter a new market, or raising a round of capital for a startup.

At the same time, the increasing internationalization of capital means that your investors have more options.

You have solid financials, but that’s just table stakes. In order to close the deal, you need to present yourself well.

You know this already. After all, you wouldn’t have gotten to where you are if you didn’t.

But knowing it, and knowing how to do it, are two different things, and sometimes a guide comes in handy, especially when you’re playing on a new level.

The Presenting CFO is your presentation sherpa, here to help you with the presentation design and techniques you’ll need to connect with the people you need.

After all, you know you merit the investment, shouldn’t everyone?

The default answer is no.

Solid financials are just table stakes.

So what is it then?
