But this is relevant. If both the product and her CV are weak, the racism card doesn't hold up. If I was deciding if I want to invest money in some app, I'm pretty sure seeing most of the reviews are poor quality fakes would be a lot more important factor than founders race.
- Jommi 6y agoYou're mistaking the forest for the trees. You could go look at a handful of other funded apps and evaluate their reviews. You're going to find similar things. My point was that you don't need to get into a more subjective, personal quip, as the arguments brought by others (eg. The CV) here are already strong enough to dismiss the racism claim.
- jjeaff 6y agoI think you are also missing the forest for the trees. The point of her post is that she submitted the exact same proposal to the exact same VCs from her husband's email instead of her own and actually started getting responses for the first time.
- lightgreen 6y agoOr maybe that’s because her husband has a LinkedIn page which is easily googleable and mentions three years of working in Google, and she has zero relevant experience.
- jjeaff 6y agoHer husband is on both decks. So at best, they didn't so much as glance at her pitch deck until the husband sent it. Or maybe they only look up the senders of the emails before deciding to even open the pitch deck. Seems rather odd.
