In the long term yes. Do you plan to get acquired or IPO? If you don't get acquired do you have a sustainable business, lifestyle* or scalable? But if you haven't taken money yet and don't care about working a day job to pay your bills while you do what you love on the side you don't need to think about these things. If you haven't thought about how the investors will make money you aren't ready to talk to them yet, and if you talk to them before you are ready you are just wasting time and burning bridges you might need later. *only if you haven't taken money.
