You're looking for investors in Venture Capital. How can you leverage your network to get the best results?
An investor's track record is crucial in assessing their fit for your company. Always research their past investments before an intro call. If they've invested in similar companies, ask about potential competition or compatibility: "How might we interact with your portfolio companies in the future?"(You can name the companies as well in this question.) If your business is a new venture for them, question their interest: "Why is our company a good fit for your portfolio?" Challenge them to show their insight by asking, "How much do you know about our business, can you tell me what do we do?" "What challenges do you think might we face?" MAKE SURE, that they've done their homework. Let them prove that they are a good fit for you.
