"When we were talking to investors, we created custom (private) pages for each investor we were courting giving them a ton more to dig through and get excited about if they wanted. The emails were short and sweet with a “want to learn more” link at the end. We used Google analytics to track which people clicked through and which individual pages they clicked on so we could know what to focus our discussions on when we met them."
You really shouldn't feel tacky. You offer some great advice. This article from several years ago (http://www.tonywright.com/2008/bootstrappers-beware/) was particularly helpful to us when we were just starting to profitable. Thank you!
hackers, especially the straight-out-of-college ones need these kind of advices as we lack those social skills, and the best places to get them are from people like you. nice advice, thanks.
PS, the tracking through Google analytics is really brilliant :)
Thanks for this - I probably would've thought it tacky to suggest what to write for the introduction... like I'd be expecting you to read from my script and putting words into your mouth. It's good to know that you'd actually appreciate help with what to say.
