Having been involved in startups as a designer, developer, and most recently, an investor, I have to say that this is the best list of its kind that I've come across.

@rickdawes4618

As a presentation designer I am always looking for insight on how an audience perceives what is being said to them, on that topic this video is pure gold! Thank you so much for putting together this team of investors to  share their experiences with startups.

@foodgeek886

Seem like I’m ticking all these boxes, now I’m more confident than ever, thank you for this video!

@i_am_reshad

best video but just  imagine one thing, imagine Mark Zuckerburg comes to you in 2004 and says: "we have no competition in market , currently this product is unique" -and as an investor you don't invest into that because of this?  not all 5 fingers are same.  I am 100% sure we can learn a lot from these investors but doesn't necessarily means we should firmly believe everything they say to us.

@sophiaburrell5142

Love this take away from the video, "the winners are defined by the people who go the distance."

@ribe3434

#3... the part about being resourceful is everything.

@radical187

Really awesome video! Great to hear directly from actual investors what they think. Nothing surprising here but I'd underline the "quick flip" advice - investors are looking for companies that can become HUGE and the founders are in it for the long game. So while most investors are probably looking to get their money back with 10-100x multiplier after 5-7 years, a founder who thinks they'll make a quick exit after 2-3 years doesn't sound committed to building something big.

@MrStuntdivermedic

I appreciate the insight.  As an Inventor/ Founder, this is very valuable.  Let's build a new future together with trust and confidence!

@NOSCAM

We had the hardest time being a unique niche startup so no investor wants to consider the company. This video helped us alot

@TrivediLina

A lot of these thankfully felt like basic common sense to me yet videos like these help me see that investors are people with needs and feelings just like us innovators. Putting myself in their potential shoes makes me feel a bit empathetic for all the different types of people they likely have to navigate and manage. “I just need a check and we’re ready to go!!” Jeez … seriously?!! I’d hate to see all of what is slipping into your DM’s! 🤣

@westwater3684

We run a social trading fund and actively source capital from investors for us to trade, and I must say, this video is still applicable in the same sense of our industry and form of sourcing capital. Great video, great people. Will be very handy to show to the sales team!!

@JElayne9

Thank you for this helpful content. I believe I lost an investors interest when asking for too little of an investment. My tech start up didn't require a lot of start up capital,so I thought. So, the investor was turned off because he was seeking to invest in companies with a minimum of 1 M. I was only asking for 50k. Oh snd yes,I always would ask my attorney,patent search person,tech developer and investors to sign an NDA and a non-compete agreement. Thanks for the lesson.

@ddmozz

That Suranga dude was great. I really enjoyed his insights. Yup, I can't define what overselling is but I can recognize when I see it (theranos is the obvious examples, but there are plenty that involve abused words like AI or blockchain).

@pambrantvolleyballandsunse2291

I have been involved in a start up that has spent 3 years in research and development. We are creating a new sport, and have the concept of the product and are working with a few companies to establish a prototype and production costs. We are almost ready with financials to start pitching to investors! So thank you for the information we have already discovered,but hearing them all together was a great reminder as I start putting together the pitch!💯🔥😎

@mainpointtalk

This is by far the best quality content I have ever seen in my business and my entire life....thank you so much ❤️ this is priceless stuff

@MortenSchroeder

This might be one of your best videos Heini! Super practical, easy to follow, and really like the style with you intro'ing and then input from the angels! Well done 👏👏

@abeleigege6262

Worst Said by one of my start up founding partner " We've never made mistakes or lost before". 


We kept loosing investors because of this statement

@donnishadavis3025

This video was a game-changer for me as a startup app founder! It reinforced key insights I’ve heard about investors, but the biggest takeaway was the importance of building the right team. That message really hit home! Appreciate the clarity and real-world advice—definitely implementing these strategies. We are a husband and wife team, but are excited to build the rest of our team!😊

@crazycatzmum

Guys if youre investing in film (intelectual property) an NDA is a must.

@AaronArmentrout

Thanks man. You are on it! We are about to go live with our software and looking forward to raising money from invertors. This video will help out tons. Thanks
