"The Maverick Angels Boot Camp was a truly mind-opening experience. I now know how to write an Executive Summary and propose an Elevator Pitch specifically geared towards investors. The Boot Camp was one of the best investments that our start-up company has made to date!"

Here is what entrepreneurs are saying about the Boot Camp for Entrepreneurs™
"I am an experienced senior executive manager and entrepreneur who has been involved with numerous start-up and growth companies. When I was told I needed to participate in the Maverick Angel Boot Camp as part of the process to qualify for consideration by the angel group, I was very reluctant since I thought that it would be a waste of my time. However, I was wrong. I found the exercise to be extremely useful in several ways. It helped me re-think how I was presenting our company and it also forced me to reorganize my investor pitch. The end result is that I ended up with a much clearer, concise and compelling presentation of our company and its opportunities. I am grateful that I spent the time going thru Boot Camp."

"I have to say that I was very skeptical about paying money to do a "Boot Camp" in order to invest with a group of Angel Investors... it seemed unreasonable. After the day long training... it has been the best $1,000 we have spent for our company so far. The knowledge and information you shared with me on structuring our presentation will make the difference in our success of securing the funding we need for the project. You guys have a great program going and I know you will make success for your group and fellow entrepreneurs!"

"Thank you SO much for all the time that you have taken to get us ready to present to Maverick. The Boot Camp was such a gift – you really helped me turn my head into the mind of an angel – Funny, I thought I had done that before, but its now easy to see how over-attached I was to our marvelous idea and the complexities of its operations, to the detriment of convincing people how this will make them great returns and how they can help us grow a new company. Thanks a million you have been absolutely amazing!"
