About the Course
Raising money from investors is only half the battle. The real challenge starts when it’s time to close the deal.
Many entrepreneurs lose out or sign bad deals because they’re not prepared for the negotiation, legal, and due diligence stages of an investment.
This practical course walks you through the full process of closing a funding deal with confidence.
You will learn how to negotiate better terms, avoid common traps, understand key legal clauses, and smoothly manage the due diligence process.
You will also discover smart ways to handle post-deal investor relationships that protect your interests and help your business grow.
Whether you’re reviewing your first term sheet, preparing for investor negotiations, or wondering what happens after the pitch, this course gives you the clarity, strategies, and tools to succeed.
