### Practice Notes
1. **Record yourself** - Time should be 42-48 seconds
2. **The pauses matter** - Don't rush through them
3. **End with silence** - Let the ask land, don't fill
4. **Body language**: Open stance, slight lean forward on FOMO
5. **Voice**: Drop pitch slightly on mission (authenticity signal)
### Red Flags to Avoid
- Desperation language ("we really need this")
- Obvious FOMO ("this is your last chance")
- Over-promising ("guaranteed 100x")
- Attacking competition by name
- Rushing the close
After presenting results, ask:
Confident without arrogance. Urgent without desperate. Authentic without oversharing. Every word must earn its place in 45 seconds.
Transform awkward pitch endings into memorable closes that leave investors thinking "I need to be in this deal" - through unexpected insights, clear advantages, authentic connection, and just enough urgency to move them to action.
