Startup Funding Espresso – Investor Focus at Each Stage of the Startup

Investor Focus at Each Stage of the Startup Hello, this is Hall T. Martin with the Startup Funding Espresso -- your daily shot of startup funding and investing. Startup investors invest across all stages of startups. For each stage, the investor should focus on a key point. Here's a list of the investor focus at each stage of the startup: Pre-seed -- focus on the team. At this stage, there's little else to review. It's about the team's insight into solving the problem. Seed -- focus on the product. At this stage, the product has been built. It's about how well the product solves the problem. Series A -- focus on the traction. At this stage, customer adoption should be picking up. It's about organic growth proving the product fits the market. Series B -- focus on the revenue. At this stage, the revenue should be growing well. It's about revenue growth quarter over quarter. Series C - focus on unit economics. At this stage, the business should be profitable at the unit economics level. It's about low cost of customer acquisition and high lifetime value. Consider the stage of the startup for your investor diligence. Thank you for joining us for the Startup Funding Espresso where we help startups and investors connect for funding.
