10 Do’s and Don’ts When Pitching Investors

I‘m always on the lookout for articles with the potential to positively change a business. What’s your take on the following points I came across recently?

Pitching investors is important part of the lives of all entrepreneurs. It is essential part of having a successful and productive connection with VCs and angel investors. The ultimate goal for all entrepreneurs, who want to establish good relationships with potential investors, is to manage to get their attention. To be memorable is the key to success at every pitching event.

As every startup is unique, every pitch should be unique as well, but there are some distinctive do’s and don’ts, which is good to be taken under consideration when pitching investors.

Do prepare different types of pitches for every situation – elevator pitch (max. 45 sec. to a minute), short pitch (5 – 10 minutes), and long pitch (more than 20 minutes). This will help you to feel confident while presenting your company to anyone in any different situation.

Don’t overlook the time frame that you have for your pitch. Prepare your pitch according to the time limit, so you will be able to make a complete and informative presentation.
