Pillars Of Inflection

While every company predicts perpetual sustained gains in profits and share price, that hope is rarely realized. What lies beneath real growth are points of inflection that drive subsequent upward momentum. These inflection points are caused by pillars of fundamental value that create the supporting infrastructure and encapsulate the fundamental strategies that are the secret to preparing any company for explosive, hockey-stick growth.

Pillars of Inflection is the first book that shows entrepreneurs how to bridge the gap between how their companies appear to investors and what they see themselves. It outlines ways that entrepreneurs can be successful in finding investors for their ventures and teaches them the psychology behind what savvy investors intuitively see as risk in a fledgling company. Going far beyond just diagnosing risk, Pillars of Inflection teaches entrepreneurs and senior management teams seven fundamental strategies for turning dimensions of risk into dimensions of strength, making them strong opportunities in the eyes of investors and, more importantly, setting their company on the road to inflection and hyper growth.

In his accessible style, veteran venture capitalist Kirby Cochran shows entrepreneurs how to think like investors and use that understanding to capture the capital so essential for dynamic growth. Never before has the gulf between the needs of investors and the goals of entrepreneurs been expressed so effectively.
