How to Make a Venture Capitalist Happy
- Make them a lot of money.
- Listen, take notes and follow their advice (kudos to Guy Kawaski, Art of the Start who taught me this one).
- Never waste their time (kudos to Scott Rafer who taught me this one).
- Metrics, Metrics, Metrics (kudos to all the VCs I’ve ever talked to who finally, collectively, managed to hammer this into me).
- Simple wins every time.
- Do what you say you will.
- Be cheap. Be stinking cheap. Then be cheap some more.

Heres a few more from my experience with VC, Angels, and as an investor myself:
1. Have an interesting story to tell, there are tons of opportunities to listen to so you better make yours compelling.
2. Having paying customers puts you ahead of the game.
3. Be honest!
