Example Output
Narrative Refinement Feedback:
- Your opening focuses on the problem, but investors need to see your insight about the solution first
- Add a 1-sentence "why now" statement after the market opportunity
- Your closing asks for money; pivot to ask for partnership and strategic guidance
Objection Handler: Likely Q: "Your TAM is $5B, but how do you reach it with this capital?" Suggested Response: "We're targeting the enterprise segment first, which is $800M and has 60% switching costs. Our $5M raise gets us to $2M ARR in that segment, making us an obvious acquisition target for [CompetitorA] or [StrategicB]."
