Why One Startup Got Funded & The Other Didn’t? 🚀💰 Recently, I validated two pitch decks. One secured funding, while the other is still seeking investors. The difference? Smart financial planning vs. unnecessary burn. ✅ Funded Startup: 🔹 Allocated ₹38,000 for office rent to accommodate their team of 12 🔹 Three highly skilled employees earning ₹50,000 each 🔹 Other staff earning ₹10,000 and ₹6,000 (interns) – trained by skilled employees 🔹 Clear & realistic financial projections ❌ Investment-Seeking Startup: 🔸 Allocated ₹1,20,000 for office rent (but working virtually 🤯) 🔸 Appointed HR Manager at ₹70,000 (before even building a strong team) 🔸 Planning to buy Sigma Premium for ₹3L per month – but if they hire top designers, shouldn’t they already have the software? 🤔 🔸 Paying ₹30,000 for a creator, ₹40,000 for a video editor, and ₹50,000 for a cameraman – yet no revenue model in sight! This is startup burning 🔥 – spending without justification.
