THE 12-WEEK COURSE INCLUDES: PITCHING:

Once you've learned to think big enough to see the real potential of your product or service, and put together the million dollar business plan, financial documents and PowerPoint presentation, you'll learn what it takes to pitch it like a pro.   Not only will you learn where and how to look for money specifically, with a business plan and Executive Summary personally reviewed and critiqued by Kim Lavine, you'll get training in how to pitch, from what to wear to how to say it.   By the time you're done, you'll have crafted an elegant and effective elevator pitch that nobody can refuse. But most importantly, you'll have the confidence and courage to stand up in front of the toughest investors and sell your business and yourself, developed by practicing your pitch to Kim Lavine herself until it's perfect.

DEAL-MAKING:

You're going to succeed! Everything you've done up to this point prepares you for the art of making the deal. You will be prepared to protect yourself and take potential investors to the mat by mastering the essential documents of the deal, starting with the most important one: the   TERM SHEET.

This one-page document is a signal that the deal has begun in earnest, and broadly outlines ever important factor you'll go on to negotiate in the next months. In this course, you will work with real documents from real deals in an interactive format. Confidence comes from knowledge, and you'll be confident that you're making the right deal when Kim Lavine is looking at it with you. DOCUMENTS:

If you're putting together a million dollar deal, the devil is in the detailed documents. You'll be instructed how to handle an exhaustive list of documents in an interactive format, that will give you priceless leverage in negotiating the best deal for yourself, while retaining the most ownership and control over your company.

An attorney would charge you an average of $40,000 to consult with you and create these documents alone; as a result you will save yourself thousands of dollars and countless sleepless nights knowing that you're in control of this very complicated negotiation from start to finish!

No one else was sharing the real life examples and resources that Kim shared. She helped me get on the right track in a number of areas including business strategy, packaging for the mass market, and sales techniques. It was an honor and pleasure to work with Kim. Actually, after reading her books, it was a dream come true!
