Great overview. On scalability, it's crucial that startups don't just think big but have a clear path to getting there. You have a platform? Great. How does it grow? Network effects? Virality? Cold sales? What's the CAC? How does LTV look as you scale? Angels will grill you on these.

So true about needing a solid revenue model. VCs want to see that you know how to make money, not just spend it. If your model's not working on a small scale, throwing VC money at it won't magically fix it. Scale what works, ditch what doesn't.
