every time you pivot your #startup, your success in the previous context hardly counts.
You still need to test and prove Product-Market / Problem/Solution fit.
OMFG - a whole year - that must mean we've sent nearly 60k decks out and gotten nearly 500 investors interested in the 300 of the 1200+ startups on the platform.
Whatever will the next year bring!?
‘Democratic’ investment platform @Decksender has come out of beta phase to launch its online method of bringing startups and potential investors together without the usual hassle https://t.co/JzaOHABs9n
@Tyler_Crown_ @akarshsanghi yes we are, the mobile app is being trialed for selected investors.
Video intros coming soon too.
Personally, not keen about Tinder for ..., sounds like we are pimping startups to be screwed by investors.
We aren't - money is only one part of equation for MOST startups.
Decksender more stuff:)
Notes facility so investors and founders can take notes about interactions.
Realtime chat facility so investors and founders can chat to each other.
Next week investors will get our first mobile app so they can review info offline.

Regional investors and Decksender? I have had 4 chats with government backed funds who all have lots of funding but an issue with not enough dealflow in their region. We are going to load these onto the platform and see if people will move to these regions where funding is.
Stats checking - 50% of all decks decksender sends out are now being opened by investors:):) Now to get the other 50% to be opened and for investors to give feedback and more feedback.
We have been finding more and more investors (1000's ) to put onto decksender. Our process is to scrape the contact details from the sites and to started testing sending info, astonished how many emails do not even get opened. Good luck if you are a founder and you do the same.:(
