Founder friends 📣 Emailing a VC your financials is the fastest way to get an investor to say NO. Instead, consider setting up a 20 Zoom to walk the investor thru your model (screen share) and talk thru your thinking and assumptions. This builds trust and rapport. *if you don’t…

I'm thrilled to be helping @julian launch deepchecks.vc. It's a group of angels and funds that invest in deep tech, and founders can submit their pitch to the entire group at once. We need more deep tech companies & hopefully sites like this make it easier to start :)

I noticed that many founders report monthly SPEND as BURN. This is incorrect and doesn’t depict correct picture of what’s going on in the business - especially if you are generating REVENUE. Here is a a simplistic way to think about it. SPEND - amount of money that leaves…
