ADVICE

VCs Don't Care About the Numbers

  • VCs don't prioritize the numbers themselves, but rather transparency, truthfulness, and consistent reporting.
  • Once trust in the numbers is established, VCs focus on trends, ratios, rates, and key metrics that drive the business model.
  • Building trust with investors and founders is crucial for a CFO, as it leads to trust in the numbers.
  • CFOs should aim to be seen as strategic assets who contribute to building the company.
  • Investors, like founders, ultimately care about the future growth of the business.
