Founder Do's

Seek validation, not just capital
Show conviction in your vision
Come before you have proof
Be honest about what you need beyond money
Ask 'do you believe in what I'm building?'

Founder Don'ts

Don't pitch without genuine belief
Don't lead with metrics over mission
Don't expect pure transactional capital
