You have 30 seconds. Do you know what to say? 🎤

Most founders skip straight to the product and lose the room before they even get there. The fix is simpler than you think.

In this episode of Founder Support, Katerina walks through the exact pitch structure that works in any conversation:

✅ Lead with who you are and your background before anything else.
✅ Frame the problem clearly and make it relatable.
✅ Show why YOU are the right person to solve it.
✅ Close with a clean, confident summary that sticks.

Whether you’re at a networking event or in a VC meeting, this is the formula.

You don’t need to be technical to start building.

In this episode of Founder Support, we hear from Valentina, a founder who built her company as:
• A single mom�• A solo founder�• With no coding experience

So what did that actually look like?
• Starting with tools like WordPress and figuring it out as she went�• Testing different platforms — some worked, some didn’t�• Using AI to close the gaps and keep building�• Learning by doing (and a lot of late nights)

The takeaway?
There’s no perfect starting point.
You don’t need to have all the skills.�You don’t need to have it fully figured out.
You just need to start — and stay with it long enough to see it take shape.

If you’ve been waiting until you feel “ready,” this is your sign.
Start where you are.
