Investor Updates
Overview
Investor updates are the most underleveraged asset in a founder's toolkit. A great update builds confidence, surfaces problems early when investors can help, and makes fundraising conversations natural rather than desperate. A bad update — or no update — signals that things aren't going well, even when they are.
Send monthly. Every month. Even when (especially when) things are hard.
