RULES:
1. Keep it constructive and civil. Rude or arrogant comments are not welcomed. We want to cultivate a forum where we help each other improve what we say or write when we pitch our business so when we do it "live" in front of a customer or investor, it resonates.

2. This is not a forum for you present your entire business plan or executive summary. This is where you try to say "more with less". Here, we want to refine how we open the discussion so our targeted audience asks us to share more. This forum is for each of us to metaphorically "sharpen the hook that we’ll use to catch our fish".

3. Please do not indiscriminately broadcast a need for funding. If an investor likes your pitch or your concept, they will likely contact you. Please keep the focus on perfecting the message.

Inside Pitch is sponsored and managed by ActSeed, an online community for startups and small businesses – a community dedicated to providing the best resources to help entrepreneurs properly plan, establish a solid operational foundation, attract investment and become highly competitive in the marketplace.
