TBC 150: Why VCs Say They Love Cold Email (And What They Actually Mean)

Venture capitalists who say they love cold email aren't lying — but they're not telling the whole story either. In this episode of The Backchannel, Jason breaks down the three types of founders who reach out cold, why VC cold submission forms mostly work for the best and worst founders, and why the messy middle — the founders who need that first leap of faith the most — are the ones cold email fails. If you've been debating whether to go warm or cold, this episode will make the answer obvious.
