A VC may well say No simply due to sheer capacity issues
VC plates get full -- and also less full -- over the course of a year, and it's very hard to tell from the outside how "full" any partner is at the moment

No one is you and that’s your super power. Are you living in someone else’s reality or yours? Will you take charge of YOUR life or allow the world to do that for you? The choice is yours. Love you all and use your DIFFERENCE to make a DIFFERENCE!

I generally don't believe in "seasonality" in SaaS.
Yes it exists, but in a fast-growing startup, the growth should mask it
Except in Europe. In the Summer.
My one exception.

There are two types of unsexy: Bringing sanity and tech to the unsexy industry and doing the boring bolts and nuts work that is necessary to get a start-up off the ground. #resilience #startup
In start-ups most of the work day to day is kind of shitty and it is not something you will get a lot of appreciation for doing right. #resilience #startupgrind
It was 6 months of frustration. We believed in what we were doing but we couldn’t get anybody to invest in it. #frustration #resilience
