How to Sell your Startup!
More About the Session
Most founders building toward their next milestone have never asked one fundamental question: what would my business sell for today?
The answer changes everything. It tells you whether raising is still the right move, how much runway you need before an exit becomes interesting, and what you should be working on right now to move the number up.
This workshop walks founders through how valuation works in practice, what drives multiples up or down for early-stage tech businesses, and how to think about the decision every founder eventually faces: raise again, or sell?
Attendees leave with their own valuation range, generated live using Dopamine's free valuation tool.
What Startups Will Learn
How buyers and investors value early-stage businesses: the methods that get used in a transaction
The five levers that move your multiple, and which ones are in your control right now
The raise vs. exit decision: how to frame it, and when one starts to make more sense than the other
What deal-ready looks like, and the most common mistakes that kill transactions or fundraises before they start
What Startups Will Receive
60 to 75 minutes. Solo presentation with live Q&A. Includes a live demo of Dopamine's free business valuation tool, where startups can run their own numbers during the session.
