I always thought the goal was to be so smart and savvy in the presentation that some skeptical VCs would be won over by my impressive arguments. It doesn’t work that way. They either like you and your idea, or they don’t. It’s like dating because your goal in dating is not to convince someone who is a bad match for you that somehow you are really a good match. That’s a recipe for divorce. It’s really about finding the person that is naturally a good match. Same way with investors.
