Hello 👋🏾,

I’m thinking on raising a round of funding for my company Powerboard and I wanted to get public feedback on the cold email I intend on sending to investors.

I would greatly appreciate it if you read the email, leave feedback in the comments, and share this with colleagues or friends who are VC professionals so they can read and leave their feedback.

Best,

Aram
