- Major Sections of a Business Proposal - Uniqueness |
Every business proposition to a Venture Capitalist should
have some unique property. Is the management team unique? Is the product or
service unique? Is the production process unique? Is it based on unique
financing? All these items could be included. The important point is that
something should make your company stand out from all the other investment
opportunities available to the Venture Capitalist.
Venture Capitalists do not like to invest in “me too”
companies. They want a company that has a unique business position. In a
separate section such as this, or in various sections throughout the business
plan, you should stress the uniqueness of your company. If your business
involves a new product, a patent on a process, or some other particularly
unusual feature, then it should be covered in a separate section such as this.
Besides including this section, the entrepreneur should interlace the business
proposal with the strengths of the company.
