How to present to investors

Paul Graham has written another highly valuable essay, this time it’s advice on how to present to investors. Paul’s company, Y Combinator, funds super-early-stage startups twice a year in January and June. He wrote up this list of pointers because he and his co-founders realized that they’ve been repeating some advice over and over, and they thought a coherent write-up might be valuable to everyone, even those not in their startup program. There are 14 points in all, and I highly recommend taking the time to absorb them.

Not a bad article. Although a couple of his rules are repetitive.

About Phoenomi

We like to build uniquely fun and viral web products that our fellow Internet Machine users can use and love. Faceplanting is our first, and we love it because while it's basically just a fun toy, it's also innovative and has massive global appeal. It will make the world smile.

But Faceplanting is just the beginning. We've got three more projects in the works that will affect the world in big ways. We hope you'll stay tuned to this blog to see how this story pans out.

For the curious, Phoenomi is pronounced fee-nah-mee and is a mashup of the words "phoenix", "phenom", and "tsunami".

Thanks for visiting.
