Well, a bunch of things are specific to me. I care more about screenshots than pitch decks.

OTOH, a "I'm a high school student and entrepreneur, and I've got an idea that is going to change the world! Let's meet to discuss" gets tired pretty quickly. Given that I have an enormous load already (day job, plus the other incoming requests) anyone who can't figure out that lowering, rather than raising, other people's transaction burden is necessary is probably someone I wouldn't invest in anyway.



Perhaps ask VH to create an 'email requirements' section? In which you could state "Meeting in person probably won't happen, let's start by you sending me screen shots"


Nivi, above, is part of VH.
