As an unknown/nobody with a startup and a pitch, have you personally gotten anywhere cold messaging investors? Emailing them, messaging on LinkedIn, filling out website applications, etc.

What were the results, and how many did you have to contact before you got anywhere?

Good question. If I needed an investor I would go to meetups and talk to them coyly e.g. "yeah doing a startup, got some customers.... so how do you advise I reduce churn for this parricular segment" "can I pay for some time for advice" and such like. Tease em.
