# Investor Introduction

The network is spent, not owned. Every introduction costs a small amount of
credibility with the recipient, and a bad one costs more than a good one
returns.

## When to use

- A company is raising and is genuinely ready.
- An investor asks for deal flow in an area a cohort company is in.

## Steps

1. **Read `introductions` for this investor first.** A run of no-outcome
   introductions to one person is the signal to stop, and it is invisible
   without the record.
2. **Check the fit specifically** — stage, sector, cheque size, thesis. A
   generic introduction spends credibility and returns nothing, and the
   recipient can tell it was generic.
3. **Ask the investor first.** Double opt-in, always. A forwarded deck without
   it is a cost imposed on somebody who did not agree to it.
4. **Describe the company honestly,** including the weak part. Overstating costs
   the next four companies far more than it gains this one.
5. **Say why you thought of them.** If you cannot, the fit is not there.
6. **Record the outcome,** including when it is nothing — which is the usual
   result and is exactly what the ledger is for.

## Output

An `introductions` row with the fit, the opt-in, and eventually the outcome. The
introduction itself goes out only with the operator's approval; nothing here
promises anybody a meeting.
