Why regular updates help you raise

Investors who receive consistent updates feel involved and are far more likely to help with intros, follow on, or refer other investors. Updates also build a track record you can point to in your next round.

Be specific in asks (“Intro to the procurement head at X”) and share bad news early. Investors forgive misses; they do not like surprises.
