How To Write Concise Investor Updates
Hello, this is Hall T. Martin with the Startup Funding Espresso -- your daily shot of startup funding and investing.
Founders should keep their investors up to date on the business.
Investor updates on a regular basis are important.
Here are some key elements to include in your investor update:
Remind the investor what you do in one sentence.
Investors often have dozens of startups ongoing, so it’s helpful to remind them.
Start with the current month’s focus for the team.
Talk about wins as well as losses.
A few bullet points on each should suffice.
Next, show the metrics for key areas such as cash, revenue, and product development.
Discuss the team by showing who is coming and who is going.
Indicate where you need help at this moment.
Give a shout-out to those investors who helped you in the past month.
This will encourage other investors to contribute.
Summarize each topic into one sentence.
This gives the investor an overview in a short amount of time.
The investor update should show them how they can help.
Finally, always be open and honest with the investors.
Thank you for joining us for the Startup Funding Espresso where we help startups and investors connect for funding.
Let’s go startup something today.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
