HITLAB worked one-on-one with Caregiven to build out a winning financial model and prepared the team for its next steps.
Through this collaboration, major decisions and vast concepts were distilled down to granular questions, which helped the startup move past challenging roadblocks. Caregiven was provided with the tools necessary to tackle questions regarding monetization of the platform, the go-to-market strategy, and pricing. These strategies challenged the founder, Candice Smith, to consider options from academic and emotional perspectives, helping her build confidence in conversations with investors. Candice describes the experience as empowering and appreciates that the final financial model stays true to the company’s mission.
