Advisory Onboarding

Answering the questions below will help me quickly learn about your business and your pain points.

What is your Name?

What is the name of your company/organization?

Is your company's primary founder someone who identifies as a woman and/or a minority?

What is the best way to reach you?

What are areas in which you'd like feedback or coaching?

Do you have a dataroom ready to share? A dataroom contains the information you would typically share with investors: your pitch deck, back-ups to kpis, your financial model, links to press, etc.

Has your company raised funding to-date?

If you answered yes above, what sources have you raised capital from thus far?

What is the biggest problem or question you would like to address in the next couple of months?

Can I share your company's name/logo on my professional website (currently being refreshed) to help showcase the kind of work I do to other founders and potential investors?

Is there anything else you would like to share or think I should know?

Testimonials

Dr. Maureen Mulvihill

CEO, Actuated Medical

Samina and I were connected through a leader in the women's health space. After one short call, it was as if Samina had been integrated into the team for months. She reviewed our dataroom, identified our biggest pain points, and presented an actionable plan to our executive team to position Actuated Medical as a leader in medtech. Most recently, she wrote a letter of support to help Actuated win government funding for one of our new products. Samina is an advocate for women and brings differentiated business insight to the table.

Tracy MacNeal

CEO, Materna Medical

I connected with Samina as Materna was going-to-market with one of our products and we were preparing for a Series A fundraise. What I immediately saw in Samina was a friendly investor I could trust for candid feedback. Samina stands apart with her calm, structured way of thinking and expertise from years of investing. Within days, she revamped our marketing deck and narrative and got deep in the weeds of our model with our CFO. I'm always thrilled to direct people her way.
