From your vision, you must create a business plan, establish a physical presence, source suppliers and technology partners, launch operations, and then convince prospects to become customers.

Going it alone will limit the scope of your expansion.

To fulfill your vision, you need to build out the management team that will help you convince investors on fronting the expansion capital.

To ensure you do not dilute your equity position too much, you must convince investors of your valuation of the company. This in itself presents a significant challenge. To succeed, you must provide tangible evidence to justify your valuation.

This means you have to truly differentiate your company from the competition and show significant value added benefits.
