Startup success completely depends on your ability to sell a vision of the future to the world.

The most successful venture-backed founders tell the biggest, boldest stories


After working with hundreds of founders and investors, we know that your ability to tell stories is the difference between those who raise and those who are forced to shut down their companies.

We make sure that the future you see turns into reality.

Our approach makes you the star.

We combine your origin story with proven frameworks to shine in every meeting you have.

You’ll be prepared to handle any question, red flag concern, or chance coffee shop meeting.

03

Tell stories that win investments

Captivate investors in first meeting and close the deal in partner meetings.

You’ll build a personal bank of automatic stories, powerful delivery techniques, and what we call "Effortless Storytelling".

OUR RESULTS

What our clients say about us

Having my stories solidified helped me land investments that I didn't think would come.

Clinton Buie
Chief Investment Officer, AmateMint Group

Investors have been floored by the approach I'm able to lead with.

Rachel Weismann
Founder, Potential AI

I have a framework for my stories now that I use every single day.

Fran Brzyski
CEO & Co-Founder, Hark Technologies

This program is such a solid base on how to fundraise, how fundraising works, and how VCs think.

Anything you try to do on top of that is going to be much better positioned for success because you know at the base level how these things work.

Series A founder

We had a solid vision and we had great traction but the biggest thing blocking us from closing this money was just my fundraising skill. So that's the thing that I needed to improve.

Seed stage founder

The most helpful thing in getting this round closed is that now I know how growth-stage VCs work.

I know what they're looking for concretely, I know how I should appear to them, and I have a much better understanding of how to communicate the story.

Series B founder

The most helpful thing for me was sending Robbie my calls and having him look at them and tell me in detail what was good, what was bad, and what could be improved near the end of the fundraise.

My Mission with Founders

Aspiring entrepreneurs and investors ask what makes the difference between failed startups and a successful venture-backed rocket ship.

Startups make common mistakes during fundraising that make venture capitalists uneasy.

Unfortunately, most founders don't get exposed to the skills needed until it's too late in the game and their money has run out.

My mission is to make sure world-class founders raise the venture capital they need to win in this ultra-competitive world.

ROBBIE CRABTREE, FOUNDER

Tech's preeminent storytelling coach

Robbie's career as a trial lawyer in 102 jury trials and leading the national mock trial team at SMU Law School made him realize that storytelling is a superpower that opens the world's doors.

The old style of pitching with presentation slides and generic pitch decks is dead. The future of fundraising is Robbie's conversational storytelling, where founders show investors how they're building the future and solving real problems through passionate, thoughtful, and captivating narratives.

His goal now? Help you get the funding to bring your vision to life.
