Founder/CEO, Startup Consultant, Funding Strategist, & Fractional CFO

I'm currently the CSO of a SaaS startup. I was previously co-founder/CEO of a mobile app startup. "C.E.O." really stands for Cheif Everything Officer. I started my mobile app startup with no prior tech/startup background and have been through it all, so I know what works and doesn't work. I know how to build businesses and sell businesses to investors. I consult on the following: - Startup/Management/Strategy - Product Development/Go-To-Market/Growth Hacking - Angel/Venture Funding Strategist Here's a secret: You don't need a written business plan to get funded. No one reads them. To get funded, you need: A strong team, good storytelling, a pitch deck, pro-forma financial statements, and an appendix. Highlights: - Was 1 of 5 companies (out of 3,000+) that got accepted into a highly competitive venture accelerator program, which was also of the GAN Network. During the accelerator, I was mentored by various angels, business professionals, serial entrepreneurs, etc. I am also a member of the GAN, an exclusive network to accelerators, founders, and investors. - I've been professionally coached by a funding strategist (who charges $10k for his services) on how to build pitch/investment decks and also on how to pitch. - Raised initial startup capital (6-figures), currently raising (7-figure) institutional seed round. - I'm familiar and connected with the east-coast and west-coast angel/VC community. - Guided my company through a pivot after the initial product failed. We rebuilt a new MVP product and business model. - Grew weekly active user growth by 9% per week (our user base was doubling every 8 weeks). I love the startup community and want to give back. My time is valuable so I want to add value. I will pass on work for another startup if I do not think I can help it become successful.

"I paid Shuai to spend an hour or so to analyze our current materials and what our company might need in order to be ready for additional fundraising. We haven't made a hiring decision on the larger job but Shuai is in the running."
