About this listen

Why do some founders build investor trust fast while others struggle to get a second meeting?

I sit down with Brad Scott, Investment Manager at Maven Capital Partners, to unpack what catches his attention before a pitch and why rushing into slides can cost you the deal.

Brad explains why building genuine relationships early can create more opportunities than a one-off pitch. He talks about how consistent investor updates help founders stay top of mind, and how having firsthand industry experience can be a decisive advantage.

If you’re gearing up for your next raise or trying to understand how VCs weigh founder, product, and traction at the early stage, this one’s for you.
