Through alignments and connections, I made sure to position myself with like minded people to get things passion of mine rolling. Thanks to good people out there, I met pros in the game who were more than ready to mentor me through it all. My first time standing to speak in front of a large group of people wasn’t easy- the nerves and all. But it had to be done and so I did-just like i always do. That one day of doing, acting and showing up has brought me to this point where I can sit and talk about where I started from in this journey of mine.
I’ve met investors from all over the world and if I was to give advise to anyone going in to pitch for investment, know that people invest in what they see a future- something that gives back to them or whoever they want to give back to. I wording dump huge sums of money into something that doesn’t have potential. No one in their normal senses would even do that.
If I was to meet investor today to pitch for investment for myself or anything in my life, I know for a fact that I’m not leaving without that investment because this is actually the time in my life when I need it the most. What will I tell them? Basically, everything I would talk about will highlight the journey so far. Where I started from. It all started when I young girl from somewhere in Ghana was dared to dream big.
The changes I’ve gone through which have moulded me into who I am today. I pride myself to be someone who is always ready to learn and not afraid to make mistakes. Over the years, I’ve been able to grow in so many ways just by speaking to people, reading self help books and reflecting on my life in general. My accomplishments and losses which are a sight to behold wouldn’t be left out because what’s seeking for investment without evidence?
Next, we’ll talk about the vision which is to grow int the best version of myself which would include achieving my goals career wise, and generally. As an overachiever, nothing stops me and I have always known myself to be someone who pushed till the very end and this journey I one I’m willing to walk no matter how hard it is. Next we talk about how much I need and what that would do for me. How much I need- a lot of money. What it wound do for me? It would change my life entirely as it would be used to fund my research and also help me enroll in courses that would contribute to making me build a stable career for myself. Stipends are also important because your girl needs to survive, at least.
To climax it, we’d talk about why I’m the best candidate to invest in. Here, we’ll dive into what the future looks like from my analysis of all goes well. We will also look at what the future looks like if something should go wrong which I guarantee will come with little to no losses and then we continue with the return on investment after a few years time and how it is going to impact the investor, his community and the world at large. At the end of the day, I bet these generous investors would have no option than to invest in me because I’m the deal! I bet you’re also looking to invest at this point.
