What clients are saying

“Armed with just our deck, we launched our fundraise with a goal to raise $2M in three months. After less than one month, we closed an upsized $2.5M seed round with $5M of demand. We’re already getting inbounds for our Series A from top tier investors. This wouldn’t have been possible without Lyonshare’s hard work and determination.”

Testimonials

“Being able to communicate our opportunity effectively was a challenge as a first time founder, which is why we engaged Lyonshare. As a result we had a story and deck that allowed us to have meaningful investor conversations and raise $1M. Kelly was laser focused on distilling our complex story so that it was most compelling to investors.”

PRE-SEED FOUNDER

“Lyonshare changed how we communicated our story to a much more clear, concise and compelling reason to invest. While the value proposition was there, Kelly helped us identify what true sustainable differentiators. We oversubscribed our round to the 20% max. We also built a relationship with a trusted advisor now knows our people and business, and will provide great value in the future.”

SERIES B FOUNDER

“Our new fund was having a difficult time framing its unique value proposition as part of its fundraise and go-to-market. Coming out of this engagement, we had a succinct narrative that tied together the various players behind the fund, with the market opportunity, and our strategy and unique approach. Kelly was instrumental in getting us here.”

FUND MANAGER

“As tech people, we get drawn into the details, Lyonshare forced us to take a step back and consider the bigger picture. We now have a top-quality deck with a clear investor message. More importantly, we walked out with a better understanding of the drivers of our own business.”
