Ask HN: How to follow up on promising investment leads?

4 pointsby ABrandtabout 15 years ago
Hi everyone,<p>Background info: I was a finalist in my college's business plan competition. Tonight the winners and losers (us) were announced. During the night's events though I got a ton of great feedback and praise. Several local prominent investors expressed a ton of interest in meeting with us further.<p>Question: I was looking for some good resources for what the best way to "stay in touch" with interested investors is. Should I send an email right away? What if we're not quite ready to take on outside investment?<p>Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks

If you're not quite ready to take investment, I would send a quick thank you note. They will remember you; when you know what you want from investors you can then reach out more formally. <a href="http://web.archive.org/web/20070406175803/blog.guykawasaki.com/" rel="nofollow">http://web.archive.org/web/20070406175803/blog.guykawasaki.c...</a>
