⚠️ What do investors *NOT* like to hear and see from you?
Four healthcare investors just sounded off at Dallas Startup Week. (But it applies to almost all sectors.)
💸 Founder or team taking sizeable salaries or benefits
☢️ Hearing "We’re unique and have no competitors"
⛔ Dishonesty
😑 Asking an investor to sign an NDA -- IMPORTANT: put whatever non-confidential info you want in your deck; confidential info can be conveyed verbally, not in writing. Later, if they move into Due Diligence, you will need a "Dataroom" they can have access to, which will contain all kinds of financials, etc.
👋 ("See ya!") Not being full-time on your company. This one's kind of a no-brainer.
👇 WHICH best applies to you?
I'm full-time on my idea
I've studied my competition
I'm bootstrapping
