Hello, this is Hall T. Martin with the Startup Funding Espresso -- your daily shot of startup funding and investing. So how do you know when not to invest in a startup? Here\u2019s a checklist of show stoppers: There\u2019s no business plan and no plan for an exit. There\u2019s no vision for the company. There\u2019s no growth in the target market. The business doesn\u2019t provide enough of a return on investment. The team has too many holes to stand up. The projected growth rate is too high and is unrealistic. There\u2019s no differentiation over the competition. Use the process of elimination to remove deals from consideration so you can focus on the ones that can make it. Thank you for joining us for the Startup Funding Espresso where we help startups and investors connect for funding.Let\u2019s go startup something today. ___________________________________ For more episodes from Investor Connect, please visit the site at: \xa0 Check out our other podcasts here: \xa0 For Investors check out: \xa0 For Startups check out: \xa0 For eGuides check out: \xa0 For upcoming Events, check out \xa0 For Feedback please contact info@tencapital.group\xa0\xa0 Music courtesy of
