VCs aren't buying dreams, they're investing in growth.
Every interaction with an investor is an implicit progress report.
They want to see you moving up and to the right, not stuck in neutral.
Forget the elaborate pitch decks. Focus on building traction.
Show consistent progress, even if it means sharing failed experiments and learning experiences along the way.
Build relationships with potential investors early on.
Keep them informed of your journey, not just your funding goals.
Don't wait for the "perfect time" to raise capital.
When you're showing demonstrable traction, start the conversation.
Remember, VCs invest in winning horses, not wishful thinking.
Show them you're on the right track, and the funding will follow.
