@shaanvp Another angle is treat it more like Office Hours.. I think that would be more beneficial. Some of us don't care as much about pitching our product than making it better.
@blendahtom yes exactly. It's not "pitching for investment" (which 9 times out of 10 will be a "no"). Unlike sharktank, we can't just edit the footage to show people who get investment.
It's "pitching for advice". Whether that's advice on the pitch itself, or advice on how to overcome the biggest challenges you're facing.
@shaanvp sweet. a office hour type feel would be way more beneficial to all involved. :)

I'm slightly unsure about this.. many really interesting businesses don't start off doing that
"right" thing. Investors don't always have that foresight to see what the business can really become.
@rickyyean Ricky do you know anyone at YouNoodle? ps. hit me up next time you're in the city & want to ball. We have a great pickup game going 4 days a week

I dismissed this the first time I saw it (then I saw your message on slack and checked it out again) but I have to say I cannot wait to watch mentorship in real-time and see how successful investors think.
I would say you should make it clearer that people can actually watch the conversations and not just be the founder or investor. Also from a design aesthetic point of view I am not a huge fan of the black text on green background or the padding of the main box.
@siddygups
Good feedback man. Hopefully the people watching will be able to apply some of the advice/insights to their own projects.

@shaanvp@siddygups Looking forward to finding out! If I had to guess this almost voyeuristic view into a raw conversation between founders and investors will prove invaluable.

This is sounds cool. Especially for individuals that haven't had a lot of exposure to the start up/ investor community.

Sounds interesting - would love to watch. I getting entertaining (ie direct) investors would be the toughest part about it, but could imagine a good one being incredibly compelling.

Nice concept, very useful for all of us and easy to scale up.. Looking forward to updates
Hi @ShaanVP, since Blab has shut down, do you think it is a good idea to move PitchCraft project to @getwhale where you take questions or take pitches on @Snapchat ?
