COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT Event: What, Why & How: Creating Core Messaging Date: October 19, 2017 Attendees: 34 Presenters: Kristy Campbell & Heather Harmon Program: How you talk about your business in your core messaging is foundational for all of your marketing. A boilerplace is a paragraph with general information about your company that goes at the bottom of a press release. This messaging is the catalyst for creating marketing materials that will land customers, go on your website, and get press coverage. The boilerplate should follow a simple formula stating three key points: what you do, why it matters, and how it's different from others. In this session, we will use cross -industry examples and team breakouts to create your company's boilerplace message.

What is your path to customers? What is the competition? Business: What is your business model? What is your cost of customer acquisition? How will you make money? Team: Who do you need on your management team and how will you get them to join you? Capital: How much capital will your business need? How will you fund the company now and in the future?

DUBLIN PARTNERSHIP REPORT 14)] 0 Q4 2017 (October - December) DEAL FLOW TERMS DEAL FLOW: all new business ventures that are submitted to Rev1 Ventures. QUALIFIED LEADS: opportunities that come through deal flow that align with our commitment to serve companies that are within our region, scalable, and tech enabled. FIRST MEETINGS: the initial meeting held with entrepreneurs for Rev1 Ventures to vet out the business model. The main topics covered in the first meeting generally revolve around the problem and solution a business is addressing, the market, revenue potential, competitors, milestones/goals and needs moving forward. COMPANIES ENGAGED: startup ventures with a signed engagement letter with Rev1 Ventures and using Rev1 Ventures resources. INVESTMENT TERMS ANGEL INVESTORS: a high net -worth individual who invests his or her own money in start-up companies in exchange for an equity share of the businesses. Rev1 Ventures recommends that entrepreneurs work with investors who are accredited investors (who meet requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission) and who can add value to the company via high quality mentoring and advice. Other important things to know about angels include: many angels are former entrepreneurs themselves, and they make investments in order to gain a return on their money, to participate in the entrepreneurial process, and often to give back to their communities by catalyzing economic growth. Angels make a return on their investment when the entrepreneur successfully grows the business and exits it, generally through a sale or merger. ANGEL FUNDS: a type of private equity investment fund that manage the money of individual angel investors who seek private equity stakes in startup and small - to medium-sized enterprises with strong growth potential. These investments are generally characterized as high-risk/high-return opportunities. Angel funds typically engage their members in sourcing, screening, and completing due diligence on, and serving on the Boards of Directors of start-up companies in which the fund invests. Many angel funds are members of the Angel Capital Association, a national network of angel funds, angel investors, and angel groups. VENTURE CAPITAL FUNDS: a type of private equity investment fund that invests in small, early-stage, emerging firms that are deemed to have high growth potential, or which have demonstrated high growth (in terms of number of employees, annual revenue, or both). Most venture capital funds invest in high growth and high technology industry sectors, such as information technology or life sciences. Investors in venture capital funds include pension funds, insurance companies, foundations, endowments, corporations, and other institutional investors. These investments are generally characterized as high-risk/high-return opportunities. Many venture capital funds are members of the National Venture Capital Association, the venture capital industry trade association.
