That's some other priorities going on yeah, I want to work on personal development

you know building relationship networking and also just overall learning more and

While I was doing that I had to look

over to my old hard drives because I want to find some important documents and some important notes and

I found something pretty interesting and when I clicked into it. You know. I just opened up the wallet and

Oh, and there it is

And then it hit me I remembered you know I used to mine bitcoins. It was probably like five five or six years ago

I remember trying to get enough so that I could buy a pizza slice

But I just couldn't get enough

I mean, I think you had I think you need like ten thousand big ones to get a slice of pizza

But yeah, I only had like a hundred something

But and then I checked the price

And I was like oh

Yeah, and I said to myself my god. What am I and do of all that money? It's crazy all the things I can buy

But then I remembered I live in Silicon Valley all I can afford a new house

Yeah, I guess I'm a homeowner now

But I mean I ran out of money, so I have to start making money again, but yes, so that's why I'm back

The pitch one of the most important aspect of your startup no matter

How great your ideas if you can't convey it, and you don't have any capital then your startup is useless

And if you can't inspire people and you don't have a team already working for you

Then your startup is he useless, but wait what if I can make a product that doesn't require much capital?

And I don't need a team I could do it by myself well

I mean if you can't convey your idea to customers then you're not gonna have any customers

And if you don't have any customers then your startup

useless every

interaction

Relating to your star you will somehow require to pitch it now that is why it is essential to perfect your pitch

Easier said than done. Here are the seven questions that you should answer as clearly as possible with these in mind

You'll be able to do ten-second pitches to a five-minute presentation with demo

number one

What do you do be as clear as possible?

No fluff no potion to test it the email tests write two sentences describing your startup in an email

Send it to a competent friend and ask him to re explain to you with his own words if they can do that then you

are golden

Number two how big is the market?

Investors care about ROI if there's no market for a product then their investment isn't worth it

Don't make your target market too wide or too narrow make it correct. You're only wasting people's time if you're making up numbers

Number three, what's your progress they want to make sure you guys are actually doing something? What is possible in a given time frame?

What can you do?

Number four what's your unique insight or in some sense? What's your competitive advantage?

How are you different than the start of next door? What makes you more likely to succeed in your market number five?

What's your business model? How are you gonna?

Make money or Yuda grow fast think about money later kind of company, or we'd be making money right away

It's always better to have a plan of attack when it comes to monetization

Number six who's on your team?

What are your credentials whose technical? Who's not who's doing? What is everyone useful? Are you as lean as possible?

Number seven what do you want this can be capital convincing someone to work for you?

or

Simply to tell your mom that you're actually doing something and that you're not wasting her life savings on your pet projects and that this

Time it's gonna blow up for sure

Once you have these answers now compress it into 30 seconds. Here's my

My startup is called not fine comm platform to create and share six point one second videos

We have a market size of at least

200 million given the fact that a similar product has just left this market I made

No progress. I understand the market both consumer and producer have been working in the publishing industry for over five months

He would be lieutenant ward because he's just running around and making

Stupid decisions all the time I bet Joma had to study off Jack Overflow to make it through a fucking Microsoft interview

I would never work for the start-up in a million years not even a million light-years, and that's not even a time
