Advice to entrepreneurs:
Don’t ‘pitch’ investors
That’s being thirsty.
Tell them who you are, how you think, what you’ve done so far, what you’re planning to do how the market looks. Teach them. You should know it better than they do.
Their job is to deploy capital.
Their job is to try and make an entrepreneur take their money if they are ‘sold’
But them being sold or not is more about them than you.
You don’t need every investor in the world.
You don’t need any investor probably.

I’ve led teams my whole life. And it’s taken me that long to learn a lot of these lessons...
1.

People always remember how you made them feel.
2.
An upset person is usually speaking in code for something else.
Don’t argue with them about what they are saying. Figure out their actual issue.

1/ As I sit on the plane flying back from a week in Shenzhen with my hardware lead. I can’t help but think…
Forget everything you’ve been told about China.
Forget about the bans on crypto and blockchain.
It’s all nonsense.
2/ They aren’t backwards. They are plowing forward.
They aren’t in the past. They are making the future.
They aren’t closed. They have open arms and minds.
