The Right Story for the Right Sale: A founder's guide to win customers, investors, and talent

June

11:00 PM - 2:00 AM

San Francisco

Tre Balchowsky

Selling your vision and product to potential investors, customers, and talent is mission-critical to your company's survival. Whether you're pitching a round, landing a design partner, or convincing a great engineer to take a risk on you, your storytelling abilities determine whether those conversations connect and convert.

In this session, public speaking and storytelling coach Tre Balchowsky breaks down the elements of story, and provides frameworks for the three sales every early-stage founder has to win.

If you're building something technical, you already know how to speak the language of precision. This session is about learning when and how to shift toward accessibility and connection so that the people on the other side of the table understand, believe, and say yes.

I can say with confidence that I get far more value from FounderNexus than the cost of the membership, and I'm not even taking full advantage! This community is going to be an important part of my journey as I continue building and growing my company.

I think the breakout sessions are a loose but useful way to get people talking about challenges and resolutions.

founder, Payscore

I was initially hesitant to join yet another group as there is no shortage of people claiming to help entrepreneurs, but Court Lorenzini and FounderNexus are the real deal. Any serious founder will benefit immensely from joining FounderNexus.

Co-founder, Imperative

I have attended events nationwide and joined so-called “MasterMind” groups, but nothing comes close to the network and support I have experienced at FounderNexus.
