ABOUT


Many dream of high growth. Few achieve it. The reality is that it's a harder cycle to complete than entrepreneurs and founders expect. The risks are numerous and intense.

The right investors will give you the space and the fuel to perfect your idea and connect with your market. However, they are going to ask you a series of searching questions about how you are actually going to perform.

Kevin R Smith knows all about the pressures that entrepreneurs and founders face. He has helped hundreds of them to plan, fund and scale their ventures. Often when they're short of time or not sure which way to turn.

Based on all these experiences, his book highlights the decisions and the capabilities that make the difference between those who accelerate and those who plateau. Written as a realistic guide to meeting the expectations of investors, he gives you a step-by-step guide to what you have to put in place to become fundable and put yourself on the path to scaling up.

Originally a banker, he has acted as an independent mentor and advisor for the last 24 years, helping to join up all the pieces for start-ups and scale-ups, so they can present the best possible version of their story to investors. Kevin is the founding partner of Boom & Partners, a multi-award winning business advisory firm, a mentor at the Nat West Entrepreneur Accelerator and at The Prince's Trust, as well as being a mentor and guest lecturer at Bayes Business School. He is a columnist on Start-ups Magazine and is a regular speaker on funding for growth.
