1) Is this a job interview or a pitch opportunity? Unclear from OP. Obviously this effects things a lot.
2) In general VCs will not be impressed by numbers that are good for a bootstrapper. They're used to people spending a million dollars to get a million dollars worth of sales.
VCs over-emphasize dealmaking as a business skill, since it's what they do all day. So use statements hings like "I was responsible for negotiating affiliate deal X with partner Y".
VCs value raw growth, even on a low base. So say things like "I've been driving traffic numbers up 50%/month for the last several months".
- mcollins027 16y agoThank you both. This question pertains to both my resume and the (hopefully) the subsequent interview. This is for an actual job with the VC, not a pitch for VC money. Re: resume, I'm searching for how to phrase/summarize my experience and accomplishments without it looking like a bunch of fluff and/or irrelevant data.
