What are the essential elements of your financial model, and how much capital do you need to raise? Develop a financial model that you can customize and communicate to investors, and calculate your funding gap.  Already have a financial model, but don’t fully understand it?  Watch the videos to better understand the inputs and outputs of your model and how they affect your bottom line. 

Note: If you are a nonprofit you may never achieve break-even, but funders will still want to see the projections and outputs from this model.
