This summary is usually our first introduction to the company and indeed forms the basis of the first document that we distribute to prospective buyers or investors. In many cases, the quality of this executive summary is a deciding factor in whether an investor will pursue a particular opportunity. Over the past several years, we have received and reviewed thousands of executive summaries and have put together a standard executive summary template that incorporates 'best practices' and positive results.
