FAQ

When in the company lifecycle should founders invest?

Series A or later is the standard window. Earlier-stage founders typically prioritize other budget. Series A founders find brand storytelling has highest ROI for the next 3-5 years. Series B/C founders use it for category leadership positioning.

How do these films connect to fundraising?

Many founders include their Time to Create portrait in deal room or share with target investors before pitch meetings. The film accelerates trust building and shortens decision cycles by 2-4 weeks on average.

Should the founder narrate their own film?

Generally yes · first-person authority is the format's power. The film is the founder's voice elevated by cinematic direction. Voice-over narration is occasional but less impactful for founder brand purposes.
