Founders

One of the biggest mistakes I've seen first time founders make is not sending monthly investor updates. It's easy to make excuses like "too busy" or "no major changes", but the truth is those emails help you hold yourself accountable. It doesn't matter if the update says you're struggling or pivoting or low on runway—that just gives investors the context to help you earlier instead of when it's too late. Once someone has invested, you should never be afraid of sending them regular company updates!
