Why most founders miss the mark in their pitch The biggest red flag for investors isn’t your idea or your passion — it’s your ability to clearly communicate why your product matters. Here’s the truth: Many founders focus on the “what” of their product, but not enough on the “why.”

As a follow on to my post about founders and reminding yourself of your “why”… Make sure to actually unplug and give attention to your why. It’s easy for founders to get engulfed in the to do items, putting out little fires everywhere, and constant contact needed. Here’s the reality… it’s not constant contact needed. If it is, the business is clearly too fragile to be giving it any attention anyways. Investors, shareholders and partners want a founder who is on thier A game. If you don’t take the time to connect with your why, you will get wound up tighter than a fu**ing guitar string until one day something small comes along and it snaps. If the little things feel like they need constant contact, put it down, step back, be on your A game and reconnect with your “why”. You will always win the next battle after taking the time. Do it.

I'll put one more, which is one-sentence pitch. Whether it is called "thesis" for VCs or "one-sentence pitch" for startups, showing the focus is extremely critical. Plus, this sentence saves time for both sides.

Ever noticed how the magic happens when the right founder, a killer product, and a hungry market collide? It’s not just about having a great idea; it’s about the founder who gets the problem inside out and crafts a product that screams, "I'm the solution you've been waiting for!" When this trifecta aligns, you’ve hit the jackpot—founder-product-market fit. Think of it as a dance where the founder leads, the product follows with grace, and the market is the enthusiastic partner ready to groove. This isn’t just business jargon; it’s the secret sauce to scaling heights and not just scraping by. The real challenge? It’s keeping this trio in sync as you scale. That’s where the real game begins.

On the hunt eh? Well what’s your prey? When you’re pitching to investors, you better break down your ideal customers. Let them in on the problem your customers are dealing with and how your thingamajig solves it. Paint the full picture. Back that up with solid research - show ’em numbers, market size, trends, all that good stuff. And don’t forget to talk about how your folks behave - what they buy, how they decide, and what they’re willing to cough up for your stuff. Now, time to talk some trash ;) - tell them why you’re better than the other guys. Explain how your thing stands out. Lastly, spill the beans on how you’re planning to expand this target market. Get ‘em excited about the growth potential. That’s the pitch, folks! Good luck out there..
