Got a great product, team, and traction but VCs are still passing?here are 6 common reasons: * Market Size Too Small: Your concept's proven, but is the total addressable market large enough for VC-level returns (10x+)? VCs seek massive scale, not just a solid niche. * No Exponential Growth Path: Traction's good, but VCs need to see how their capital fuels rapid, exponential growth. * Weak Unit Economics: Your business model might be proven, but are your Customer Acquisition Costs (CAC) low, and Lifetime Value (LTV) high? * Lack of Defensibility/Too Much Competition: Even if you're good, do you have a sustainable moat? VCs worry about crowded markets or easily replicated solutions. What makes you truly unique and hard to copy? * Unclear Exit Potential: VCs invest to exit. They need a clear, plausible path to a big acquisition or IPO. * Missing "X-Factor" / Visionary Story: Beyond a good deck, VCs look for audacious vision and compelling storytelling. Is your passion palpable?
