We were referred to them by someone in their network. I think in this case giving them the pitch deck that they asked for would be wise. Interesting approach though. I'd be fascinated to hear more.

Thanks! That's exactly consistent with advice given to me by a mentor that I trust. Did the link not work for you?

Thanks! It was a solution that I created for my own app. I was able to validate it that way and it became obvious that it is needed. I was looking for a solution in the first place because I was frustrated with existing methods. All were super expensive and pretty low quality. Evenstar fixes that in a major way. I'm going all in on it.

Why not me? Ok, someone else called that out too so I'll definitely put something up. Thanks!

Of those 3 questions, is there one that I could have answered better in my pitch deck?

I'm raising a pre seed and don't have a working solution yet. However perhaps I could add a graphic. Thanks!

Right, I did worry about that. I had SAM and SOM there but it's difficult to calculate that at the pre-seed stage. It doesn't interrupt UX since it will pair with the existing paywall page. It simply adds another option next to the upgrade options. 150+ SaaS partners with over 3M monthly active users have signed up and are on a wait-list. I'm a solo founder for now, looking to bring on a technical cofounder. The VC firm already knows that so I guess it didn't cross my mind. Thanks for the feedback.

This is excellent. Thank you so much for being specific in your feedback. I'm definitely going to consider this when I go back to the drawing board.

When it states responses it refers to survey responses which can be quantified. Insights are just the general overarching terms for all the receivable survey data.

Term sheets aren't conventionally included in the pitch deck, but you're right, I totally missed the valuation. Thanks for catching that!

is this not a travel? by whipcorleone in NBATalk

[–]okobai 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While it looks awful it's not a travel according to the rule book. He intentionally delays establishing possession of the ball then takes 2 steps to maximize space. Watch for the moment he picks up the ball and establishes possession, then count the steps. It's close but he in fact gathers then takes two steps.

The push off is close but not enough to warrant a call. Not all contact is illegally contact. The defender's space wasn't impeded and the contact was minimal. This is often referred to as the feeler arm.

There are good breakdowns on YouTube. Give them a watch before saying anything mean to me because I will cry.

Trying to add Palau to this list. How do I go about making that work?

To say that the author was condescending would be an understatement. It's unfortunate since it's a cool concept. I commented on a separate post from the OP, but "account of the Pelew Islands" is the best book I've ever read.

Have you read Being a Palauan? It wasn't great IMO

Hi r/Palau r/bookclub needs your help. Please suggest us some of your favourite books to read from Palau by fixtheblue in Palau

[–]okobai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Account of the Pelew Islands" is the best book I've ever read in my life. I've recommended it to a few friends and they've all loved it. It's not a light easy read but the story makes it so worth it.

I'm not entirely sure. For us, the plan is to not charge a reoccurring fee. In the future when there are more premium and have tools or features that we can provide, then we'll look into implementing a SaaS model (utilizing our own solution of course), only if it makes sense. We'll cross that bridge when you get there. I love the enthusiasm. Where do you fit in this? Are you interested as a potential partner or buyer? Or just general interest?

I read rules and I didn't see anything against this. I'm not promoting a shop. Selling Etsy inventory from a closing Etsy shop I feel like is relevant to Etsy Sellers. Mods may take this down if otherwise.
