Description
What sort of Strategic Advisory services do we offer? What do you need, exactly? In business since 1996, In3 principals probably have the depth to handle your situation. If your situation requires something that is outside our expertise, we’ll say so immediately. We’ve delivered project and venture development, fundraising strategy, funding, business planning (includes financial modeling and all essential facets of capital formation), from testing/validating fundamental feasibility to business plan critiques, financial modeling and financial model reviews, and assistance with understanding and satisfying investor requirements for securing the best-available terms as quickly as possible.

Such “management services” usually means we would charge a fee for the value we deliver prior to securing outside capital, if fundraising is your current goal. This follows the principle of “shared risk, shared reward.” These longer-term advisory services are usually arranged as a package within a tightly-defined scope of work (see 1-page roadmap for fundraising), developed together, through discussion.
This “Done For You” (DFY) fee-for-service offer differs when using In3’s flagship Completion Assurance Program (CAP Funding), as we can be reasonably certain a binding offer will be made (via termsheet or contracts), for which we do not charge initial fees. Projects that are not well-documented may require additional work to uphold accounting standards (IFRS or GAAP) or to summarize key points that are required for vetting and acceptance following due diligence. We can discuss who will do what and may not need to ask for management fees ahead of first draw of funding.
There is a sharp difference between a coherent story, one that seems like it should be true, versus one that holds together by factual evidence to support the base case of business feasibility.
“The challenge is that subjective confidence is determined by the coherence of the story one has constructed, not by the quality and amount of the information that supports it.”
– Daniel Kahneman, recipient of the Nobel Prize in Economics
