PUBLIC:

A friend called in a favor to get me to an analyst. The pitch was fine--cordial--but I knew about 15 minutes into it that the two young gents in the meeting weren't really following me. Their questions did not suggest that they really grasped our business model. I tried to get a partner into the room, knowing that it was going to die otherwise, but to no avail. They passed for vague reasons. It would have been good practice had they asked better questions.
