I'm in the same place sans profitable company; I didn't know anyone in the space. I've started going to entrepreneur focused meet ups... in my experience it has been a bit more effective than email/linkedin because you get to spend some face time with people.
But as benologist said, numbers speak for themselves. I'm sure few vcs will ignore an email promising double digit growth rates
- anoncofounder 15y agoBut as benologist said, numbers speak for themselves. I'm sure few vcs will ignore an email promising double digit growth rates Oh, but they do. I won't name names here, but we had an agreement to meet up with an internet-famous VC that we contacted cold - but he cut off contact before we could confirm. I appreciate the idea about attending meetups. We may try it, but our time is very constrained. Thanks.
- bicknergseng 15y agoWell that makes me feel better about my own cold email success rate. In my experience, other founders are more willing to connect than VCs. A lot of them have their emails on their blogs, and are probably willing to introduce you to their own investors.
