Delivering Promises! • 2m

Why do most #investors hesitate to #invest in startups from Bihar? Because many founders here focus more on being “helpful” rather than being “practical.”🫡 And when you lose practicality, you lose scale.💯 Recently, I was talking to a founder who wanted to build a Snabbit type startup in Bihar — offering services like nurse/maid booking. But let’s face it: - Bihar’s market is not ready for this. - People here don’t even feel the need for such services right now. - It’s like saying: "You don’t need it, but please take it anyway." That’s the problem. Many founders from #Bihar think small and local instead of thinking about scalable, investable businesses. Until we stop creating startups just for the sake of “solving problems that don’t exist,” investors will keep their wallets closed. 💡 Being helpful is good. But in #business, being practical is survival. What do you think? 💬

The fastest way to lose investor trust: It’s not missing targets. It’s hiding that you’re missing them. Founders send “everything’s great” updates while their runway was 2 months. The result? Investors stop returning calls. Doors close. a. Send b

Why do so many smart founders avoid being on camera? I’ve learned it’s rarely about confidence. It’s about control. Video forces you to show the parts you can’t polish, rehearse, or hide behind a deck. But here’s the twist: those unpolished parts a
