I just finished reading the book Venture Capitalists at Work, which is a collection of solid interviews by Tarang Shah of certain highly-successful investors. I have set forth below some nuggets for entrepreneurs. This is part one of a three-part series. I hope entrepreneurs find a few of the quotes helpful and get a better understanding of how VC’s think. Thanks, Scott

I’ve been helping entrepreneurs raise capital as a securities lawyer for 17+ years, and there are certain fundamental mistakes that I’ve seen entrepreneurs repeatedly make. Accordingly, I thought it would be helpful to share three basic tips for entrepreneurs in connection with raising capital. This is part two of a three-part series, which was originally published on The Huffington Post.

As a corporate lawyer for entrepreneurs, I am often asked to review pitch decks. A “pitch deck” is a collection of PowerPoint slides created by an entrepreneur in order to raise funds from (i.e., “pitch”) investors. They can be sent to investors as a stand-alone document (e.g., via email) or they can be used in conjunction with an in-person presentation. I am generally happy to give my input with respect to pitch decks — with the caveat that I’m a lawyer, not an investor. That being said, here are five common mistakes that I see:

The purpose of this post is expand upon my answer to the question on Quora:
“What should you do as a startup when a Bay Area VC insists that you use their expensive legal counsel?”
Mark Suster, a VC at GRP Partners, has also written and spoken about how he likes to “share” his legal counsel with the startup in which he is investing. My advice to entrepreneurs is clear: push back hard on this issue and choose your own strong, independent legal counsel – i.e., a law firm that’s going to work hard to protect you and watch your back.

To Our Clients & Friends: Welcome to our weekly series entitled “Helping Entrepreneurs Succeed.” Each week, we post a short video clip of a successful entrepreneur, investor or business leader on a variety of topics to help entrepreneurs succeed.
This week, we present legendary investor John Doerr, a partner at Kleiner Perkins. Eric Schmidt calls John “one of Google’s best board members”; and Jeff Bezos noted that “Doerr (and Kleiner) is the center of gravity in the Internet.” In this interesting, one-minute clip from 2005 (courtesy of Stanford University’s Entrepreneurship Corner), John discusses how to negotiate valuations with VC’s and related issues.
I included this clip as a supplement to my blog post today on VentureBeat in which I advised entrepreneurs that: “[Y]ou need to get out there and effectively pitch a bunch of VC’s in your space and get them excited about your venture. By doing so, you can, in effect, drive the market by creating a competitive environment and playing the VC’s off of each other.” Many thanks, Scott
