Full-Cycle Investment Readiness & Fundraising Support

ASER supports businesses in getting investment-ready, delivering strong pitches, and closing successful funding rounds.

Investment Readiness Audit

Before entering the investment market, it’s essential to assess how prepared your company is to attract external funding. At ASER, we offer a comprehensive investment readiness audit designed to evaluate your current position and identify any critical gaps.

Our audit includes:

  • a review of your business model and growth strategy;
  • an assessment of financial reporting and cash flow management;
  • legal structure analysis;
  • actionable recommendations to address potential red flags.

Such a thorough evaluation helps you avoid common pitfalls during investor negotiations and significantly increases your chances of securing funding successfully.

Investment Strategy Development

A company doesn’t always clearly know which form of financing best suits its current needs. We help identify the optimal approach:

  • Traditional equity investment.
  • SAFE/Convertible Notes.
  • Venture debt or revenue-based financing.
  • Crowdfunding or participation in accelerators.

Each format has its advantages and risks. Experts analyze your business goals and stage to select the most effective strategy.

Financial Model Optimization

A high-quality financial model is one of the key tools in negotiations with investors. We don’t just build spreadsheets — we develop a logically structured forecasting system that includes:

  • Revenue drivers.
  • Cost structure.
  • Break-even point.
  • Scenario analysis (base, optimistic, pessimistic).
  • Exit multiples and investor IRR.

The model is easily adaptable to the requirements of different types of funds, allowing you to clearly demonstrate your company’s growth potential.

Data Room Preparation & Due Diligence Support

One of the most critical stages of any deal is the investor’s due diligence. Our consultants help you:

  • structure and organize a virtual data room;
  • prepare all necessary documents, including legal, financial, HR, and operational materials;
  • respond to investor requests during the due diligence process;
  • coordinate the work of your legal and tax advisors.

This approach significantly enhances the quality of deal preparation and lays a solid foundation for successful engagement with potential investors.

Pitch Coaching & Investor Communication Strategy

The presentation and demeanor of the founder or CEO during meetings play an important role. We:

  • help formulate key messages and unique selling points;
  • practice responses to challenging questions;
  • prepare a concise, compelling pitch deck tailored to investor expectations;
  • provide guidance on developing a communication strategy throughout different stages of the deal.

Developing a clear, consistent message helps avoid misunderstandings and positions the company as a reliable investment opportunity.

Post-Investment Support

Engagement with investors doesn’t end once the deal is signed. We stay involved and support our clients in the following areas:

  • monitoring compliance with financing agreements;
  • preparing regular reports;
  • advising on strategic issues and business scaling;
  • preparing for follow-on funding rounds.

Ongoing investor support helps maintain a strong focus on business growth, minimize the risk of non-compliance, and ensure timely responses to requests — ultimately strengthening the effectiveness of collaboration.
