MONET CAPITAL LLC thoroughly evaluates your vision, technologies, products, markets, and team members.

MONET PROCESS

Working with MONET CAPITAL LLC begins with a promising idea. Then, MONET CAPITAL LLC thoroughly evaluates your vision, technologies, products, markets, and team members. MONET CAPITAL LLC engages deeply with you to refine your business plan - often involving industry experts, potential customers, other firms, and outside consultants.

Although MONET CAPITAL LLC often works with an entrepreneur before anything has been committed to paper, the process usually begins with a business plan. A good business plan is more than a money-raising tool. It is also a working document that captures the essence of your company and accurately models the requirements for executing your strategy over time. When building the plan, it is crucial that you talk to your customers and competitors and do your financial homework.

After MONET CAPITAL LLC has read your plan, if it is in an area of interest for us, we will invite you in to present your idea, and allow you to go into some depth about its promise and problems. We will ask you to bring in the founders and key employees, so that they can answer questions about their specific areas directly. We may ask one of our entrepreneurs-in-residence or an outside expert from our network to sit in. These meetings are a very important part of the evaluation process. Your team's ability to clearly articulate and summarize the important issues in your plan reflect their true understanding of the business and how well they will be able to sell your ideas to future employees and investors.


Your business plan should describe:
  • The challenges and the opportunity it creates for your company.


  • The solution you intend to provide.


  • The market, the competitive landscape, and key trends.


  • Sales and distribution strategies.


  • Intellectual property assets.


  • Government regulation issues.


  • A liquidity plan.


  • Key team members and skill requirements.


  • A five-year financial plan, including income statements, balance sheets, cash flow, and a capitalization table.
