Are You Stuck in the Middle of Building Your Health Tech Vision?
Launching a startup is exhilarating. Sustaining it? That’s the hard part.
Too many visionary founders get stuck in “the messy middle”—the space between early excitement and scalable traction.
If you’ve lost momentum, you’re not alone. But the good news? You don’t have to stay stuck.
Why Health Tech Founders Lose Momentum in Fundraising
The stall usually looks like this:
Unclear messaging that doesn’t land with investors or customers.
Competing priorities and limited resources.
Pitches that feel flat but are hard to fix.
Founder fatigue after months of iteration.
You built something that matters. Now it’s time to make sure the world hears it—clearly and confidently.
The Real Cost of Misaligned Messaging
The data tells the story:
70% of founders say their biggest challenge is communicating value. (Y Combinator)
45% of pre-seed founders spend 30+ hours/month on fundraising. (Crunchbase)
9 out of 10 startups that fail cite poor communication of product-market fit. (CB Insights)
“Clarity isn’t just a communication strategy. It’s a growth strategy.” — April Dunford, author of Obviously Awesome
When your story isn’t aligned, your startup slows down.
When your message lands? Momentum—and funding—follow.

How the Pitch to Yes Workshop Helps Founders Regain Momentum

This workshop is built for:
Femtech founders breaking through investor bias
Digital health teams tackling complex clinical language

Common Messaging Mistakes That Hold Founders Back
Even revolutionary products fail if the story doesn’t connect. The biggest mistakes we see:
Overexplaining features instead of benefits
Using jargon with generalist investors
Leading with product instead of pain point
Forgetting a clear call-to-action
Failing to adapt the story by funding stage
The fix? Refine, simplify, and realign your narrative for the investors you want to reach.
How to Refine Your Pitch for Series A and Beyond
Your story must evolve with your funding stage:
Pre-Seed: Focus on problem, vision, early traction, and founder story.
Seed: Highlight solution, market size, business model, and early validation.
Series A: Emphasize traction data, scalability, and team strength.
“Tailor your story to the audience. Investors care about different things than your users do.” — Marc Andreessen
The Pitch to Yes team helps you refine your story for each stage—so your pitch grows with your company.
