❌ "I Have an Idea That'll Revolutionize Everything" -- But No One Bites. Why? Every day on medial, LinkedIn, and pitch DMs, you’ll see this :) "I have an idea that will revolutionize healthcare/education/transport. Looking for investors. DM me." But let’s be real: no one's investing based on a random post like that. 💡 Here's Why This Doesn’t Work: 1. Everyone has ideas. It’s the execution that’s rare. Investors know this. 2. No plan, no product, no team, no traction = no confidence. If you haven’t built anything, what are you expecting them to bet on? Vibes? even vibecoding got no vibes, what's this? 3. No investor will chase you based on hype words like “revolutionize.” They want to see proof, not poetry. 4. Blind DMs to VCs without clarity or groundwork waste your own credibility. It shows you don’t understand the basics of building or fundraising. ✅ The Right Way to Do It: Build something small. Even a simple MVP or landing page. Talk to real users. Validate the problem, collect feedback. Form a core team. Investors back execution machines, not solo dreamers. Have a clear, crisp pitch. Problem → Solution → Market → Business model → Why now? Get early traction. 10 real users >> 10,000 empty words. 🧠 Want to Get Investors Interested? Don’t say: "I have a milliondollar idea." Say: "We built a prototype in 4 weeks. 120 people signed up. 30 are active users. Here’s what we’re solving, and how we’ll scale." 🎯 Ideas don’t raise money. Proof does. If you're serious, build first. Pitch later. 🌝👑

Unpopular Opinion: If you have zero traction, don’t pitch VCs yet. You know what I see too often? Founders sending decks before they’ve even tested the idea. Here’s the blunt truth: 💡 VCs don’t fund ideas. They fund signals. And “signal” doesn’t

Most Indian Founders Don’t Build Startups. They Build Investor Bait. Let’s be honest: → You’re not building for users. → You’re building for pitch decks. → You’re designing “TAM” not “Retention.” We’ve glamorized funding so hard, we forgot: VCs f
