The Numbers You Must Know Before You Go on Dragons’ Den | Ep 137

Everyone wants the deal. Very few founders are actually built for one. In this episode, I break down what really matters before you ever step into the Den and it’s not your pitch deck. We’re talking about: • The difference between founder thinking and Dragon thinking • Why revenue alone doesn’t impress investors • The margins, EBITDA, and cash flow numbers you need to know clearly • How valuation is actually calculated (with real examples) • Why most founders lose the deal by overvaluing their business • Why incorporation and share structure matter if you want investors • What due diligence really checks and why your numbers need to match your story If you’re building a business and think you might want capital one day or you just want to run it like someone serious would invest in it , then this episode is for you. Because pitching is one thing. Being financially ready is another.
