WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT
At MMR Specialty Foods, we help you achieve your business goals through a simple, three-step process:
Step 1: Intake Review - We begin by gathering information about your business, so we can prepare for Exploration.
Step 2: Exploration - During a 3-hour meeting, we take a deep dive into all aspects of your pitch. We review your current position, including your resources, processes, management team, marketplace positioning, and more. Along the way, we identify challenges and areas for improvement to create a stronger foundation for growth.
Step 3: Investor Profile - Who do you want to invest in you? Together, we will create an investor profile that depicts the qualities you care about. By the end of our time together, you will understand the terms of a raise, what you will offer investors, and direction on how to choose investors. We will also explore alternative funding options, like crowdfunding and incubators.
Our approach is designed to provide you with a clear, actionable plan. Whether you need guidance with operations, funding, or developing a successful exit strategy, our team of experts will clear your path, giving you the confidence to proceed with enthusiasm.
