Understanding ROI is critical when pitching film investors—but most filmmakers either oversell it or avoid it completely. In this episode, Tom Malloy breaks down film ROI using simple math, a $1M example, and real investor expectations. You’ll learn how to present hypothetical returns in a realistic 30–70% range, why projections can hurt your pitch, and how to explain an investor waterfall without overpromising.
Perfect for filmmakers raising money, building business plans, or pitching private equity for independent films.
