My company is Bread and we make ad creative super easy. They’re looking to spend only a precious few seconds with each person, forcing you to rush your pitch. So much of a VC’s work behind the scenes of their inbox is trying to figure out if this person is for real and you’re only giving them the pitch to vet. My name is Alan.

It''s a co-working space full of creatives and freelancers, most of whom who have never pitched an investor, and probably never seen a startup pitch either. The first question I always get, which I find endlessly hilarious, is "Don''t you get tired of people pitching you all the time?". Well, I guess I''m not surprised.

If they are out there, others need to hear about them more--not in a pitch but in a better way to share cutting edge ideas. When such an event is so pervasive, there are simply no perfect answers on how to deal with it or move forward. There are a ton of fantastically creative people here. Or, at least, that's the perception.

Given that, the lack of creativity and ingenuity around reaching an investor really astounds me. Take this #notapitch event. I set up an event at NYIT that is essentially just free, open feedback on ideas, prototypes, startups, etc. It doesn't have to count as an official pitch of any kind. Plenty of room. RSVP here. ).

It is always a stellar event. It is Nikolas Tesla pitching a VC firm. Because the videos show exactly what life would be like if a young Elon Musk came to pitch VCs today and said I want to transform P2P finance, get people driving electric cars and send a man to mars in our lifetime. But Elon Musk stole the show.

I’ll be the first to back up the notion that diverse founders have just as much ambition, drive, intellectual horsepower, creativity—you name it—than anyone else. There are all sorts of well-intentioned mentoring programs, networking events, etc. It’s also not something you can fix overnight, either.

I want your pitch to be the one I say yes to--and I want you to solve the inherent problems in your business model. Just take how most people approach networking events and talks. One event organizer had even asked me if I wanted to give my talk before the company demos, enabling me to duck out before the crowds could rush me.
