I've just finished reviewing 180 business pitches for muru-D and will look at another 100+ for Startmate over the next few weeks.
I've whipped together my thoughts on the written applications submitted:
- Writing less material is easier to digest and more likely to be digested at all, i.e. write less. Be specific and don’t use buzzwords.
- Do something to stand out from the other 179 applications.
- Show revenue. If you can't show revenue, show traction, if you can't show traction, show tenacity. If you can't show tenacity, go be tenacious.
