When I first saw this article written by Raj Kapoor (http://url.ag/7q4uy2) appropriately titled A VCs Advice on How to Pitch VCs I thought to myself how fitting for a pitch on #eGether. Kapoor has been a VC at the Mayfield Fund over the past five years and prior he founded the photo site #Snapfish, which he sold to #HP.

We embrace Kapoors philosophy of providing just the right amount of info (hence the limitation of 999 characters per/pitch) because we are time-strapped and attention-starved.

There are 10 key areas he goes over when #pitching to #VCs:

1-What Do You Do?
2-Reveal Your End Game.
3-What is the True Size of Your Market?
4-The Secret Ingredient is People.
5-Go-To-Market Strategy.
6-Be Honest About What Stage You Are At.
7- Your Real Competitive Advantage is Being Different in the Long Term.
8-Product, Product, Product.
9-Plausible Financials.
10-The Ask.

Here at #eGether we are still thinking through a lot of these key areas. Feel free to drop us #feedbacks.
