An $8,000,000 plan
  
 

Visiosonic had a unique product that people wanted, especially at the height of the MP3 demand. Problem was, they didn't have the money to reach the market. And time was not on their side.

They brought me in, and in a few short days I had written a complete business plan with forecasts, budgets and pro-forma financials. The plan was realistic and acheivable, and it helped investors to understand the opportunity as well as the larger context for the business. We heard time and again that this was the first business plan investors really understood.

But we weren't looking for compliments. I helped pitch the company to investment bankers, venture capitalists, and high net worth individuals, helping raise $8,000,000 in a very short period of time. The results were that the company was able to grow and prosper, and the opportunity was realized. And we also built the company's first website, developed the first ecommerce platform, designed the first boxes, built a retail sales force, made joint presentations to key partners like Coca-Cola, Rolling Stone, CDNOW, Sprite, and many others.
