Ravi Warrier

Hi, I’m Ravi Warrier, My journey began in 1995 when I launched my first business at 17. Since then, my career has spanned over 30 years, filled with roles as a trainer, consultant, and coach. 

Why do people act the way they do? How can we align with their desires and needs? What makes communication truly effective? These questions have guided my path. I explore the nuances of human psychology, the principles of human-centric design, and the art of public speaking. These pillars form the foundation of Funding Pitchcraft, Impress Every Investor, and the workshops I conduct.

Some figures:

  • 5000+ startup founders and individuals trained
  • 150+ startups helped through consulting
  • 35% success rate (compared to industry average of 5%)

I sit on investor councils and participate in investment discussions. My aim is not to invest but to bridge the gap between investors and founders, ensuring mutual understanding and alignment of goals.

This workshop is the essence of all my years of experience, learning, and teaching. It’s a reflection of who I am and what I love most—helping individuals like you to achieve your dreams.

By the end of the course:

you will understand how to think like an investor, build strong value propositions, and mitigate risks, making your startup an attractive investment.

you will know how to be able to craft and deliver pitches that captivate investors, supported by well-presented financials and key metrics.

You will understand how to confidently handle Q&A sessions, turning challenging questions into opportunities to reinforce your pitch and build trust with investors.
