Publish a daily blog, contribute to relevant social networks, and write a “white paper” on your technology. No name, picture, address, or business history only convinces customers that you are hiding, located in an untrustable country, or don’t have a clue. They will exit quickly. Show evidence of your expertise.

Recession or not, what is universal is the bewilderment of many entrepreneurs on how negative VCs have become over the past nine months after almost five years of non-stop cheerleading. Just six months ago, VCs were publishing white papers extolling the virtue of non-bank lending startups, but now no one will touch them with a 10-foot pole.
