Our founder @_WayWang often encourages team that "Done is better than perfect sometimes."
Although both capital markets and the real world currently seem to chase perfect results, I believe that finishing something is a remarkable success in itself.
Startups are hard
When you actively angel invest, you get regular reminders of this. even when you have great team, investors and time, doesn't always work out
I've gotten 3 M&A updates in last weeks from teams that really tried their best but didn't quite take off
I can hear the founder's disappointment in the tone of the email, my heart breaks a little reading it
But my reaction is CONGRATS on landing the plane and the journey of building. Soft landings are hard to find. I really respect founders who find a way.
Be proud of the team's work, the tenacity and learnings from this experience. Rest, recover and try again.
No regrets.
@annbordetsky I believe that entrepreneurship itself—especially the experience of going through the entire journey from zero to one—is a tremendous asset in life.
To be honest, it is not just VC marketing that needs a change.
Does anyone else feel like the way we do pitch decks and roadshows is also long overdue for a transformation?
我真的太想把venture capital的marketing搞成这种内容形式了,就是vlog然后去拜访各家企业(在适合的时候),从疫情那会就有特别多的build in public,我看见的invest in public并且有品的几乎没有(invest就是一个普通的工种罢了),
而且我想搞不是他妈那种创始人采访,也不是那种资本家的风格,就是想要足够humble、足够真实、足够想赢,总感觉播客已经卷到头了,再往下走的话,一定会有更多人想要消费这种内容的。
