Before a raise, the board pack, the model and the ledger each tell a slightly different story.
Inside the company that feels like rounding. In a data room it becomes a list of questions, and every question costs time.
The fix is one version, tied back to the source before anything goes out, with every difference explained.
The test: pick any number in your investor deck and trace it to the ledger. If it takes more than a few minutes, an investor will find it first.
