Advice requested on investor exposure
Would love to hear from other Founders regarding how to gather investors. I have what I believe is a fine pitch deck, but as a technical founder I am not an outgoing salesperson and do not have experience in this area. What are some strategies you have used successfully to get exposure to investors?
FYI, my application in question is essentially Claude Code Enterprise for small business at very low cost. Full auditing via plugins, enterprise class change management, and spec-driven development driven agents that reduce hallucinations and stay on target. If you have $50,000, you don't need it because you can just pay Anthropic for theirs.

Running SaasRise, I've seen that SaaS founders who raise most easily usually get there through warm intros and a few paying customers, not a polished deck or a big personality. So I'd sign up ten small businesses that can't justify $50,000 for Claude Code Enterprise, then ask founders you know to introduce you to the angels who backed them, because paying customers make the pitch for you even if you're not a natural salesperson.
Post hoc ergo propter hoc. For those of us who are not the extroverts who cultivated relationships our whole lives, and now find ourselves with limited resources, what is available in the online world? The pressure of time is immense, the resources sparse. Step 1 to making money is to have money. I am on Step 0 - need a future, have talent and a great idea. I am seeking those on Step 1 to assist them in their journey and move along on my own.
