    The Art Of Not Pitching

    This is a great post. It's so spot on, it should be illegal.

    Founders do better if they talk less. It's a power thing.

    Many great blogs and books tell you how to perfect your pitch to potential investors. What they leave out, however, is the most important pitch of all: the non-pitch. Successful entrepreneurs have mastered The Art of Not Pitching. Here’s how.

    yes, it is cool. the perspective is consistent with allen morgan's presentation rules [rule no 3] (expanded on, and linked to by david beisel and seth levine)

    newbie note: allen's rules are the best, the immutable and the standard pitching rules...and all other rules are irrelevant in comparison (save kawasaki's powerpoint rules, which are a specialist topic)

    In Real Estate it all come down to the numbers and the team. When we submit a package to the investor he says yes or no.
