And it’s almost universally true that the new band of angels & seed investors are product gurus. I believe in this so much that, despite my post advising you to be prepared for the *norm* in VC, I wrote a post about a company that came in for a presentation and never even got the slides out or presented a demo.

Last night I attended the inaugural Open Angel Forum event started by Jason Calacanis , a fellow LA resident. Jason started the Open Angel Forum in response to his frustration that entrepreneurs were being charged by some angel organizations to present at their events. The event last night in Los Angeles was great.

I think you can get the gist of it from my presentation although some slides don’t quite tell the full story. If you’re bullish you seem like a Cramer-esque cheerleader and if you’re bearish you sound like a party pooper. But Adeo asked so I obliged. I don’t know whether they shot video. If they do I’ll post it.

The average length of a funding pitch to Angel investors is ten minutes. I’ve seen several presentations that never moved past the first slide before running out of time. Research your audience before presenting. Others can be present for effect, but deferrals to team members for answers are a sign of weakness.

When making a presentation to a new audience, the smart thing to do, if there is an opportunity, is to ask your audience by show of hands, if they have some knowledge of your industry or space. And if you are making a one-to-one presentation, don’t start without a conversation about the other person’s knowledge of your space.
