One question. Ten minutes. A straight answer.
I sat in the founder meetings, built the market sizing, and wrote the investment memos that decided who got funded and who got a polite no. So if your question is about how investors actually think, I have probably seen the answer from the inside.
Good questions for this call:
Is my startup even VC backable
Why do I keep getting ghosted after the first meeting
Should I raise at all, or am I better off without it
Is this investor a real fit for what I am building
Come with one specific question, not your whole life story. Ten minutes goes fast and I would rather give you one useful answer than four vague ones.
I open a small number of these each week and they usually go within a day.
