Can you provide any links or books that'd provide guidance on speaking "their language"? Seems like a wonderful opportunity to educate. I'd love to learn more as someone that tried to raise money, albeit from a smaller sample (~50 engagements), and failed miserably.

That's a great question. Let me go through my collection and see if I can find any that might provide guidance.

I found that it was like a fraternity, though. I only learned it by hanging out with them. Kind of like how doctors call bruises 'hematoma's. They all know what it means, but it wouldn't occur to us normies to call it that.

If that book doesn't exist, maybe somebody should write it!

Assuming you believe you aren't able to secure commitments >$1M in publisher cash for that book, then?

Does that exist for tech books?

Unless you're a best-seller, swinging a deal like that's hard - in any genre =]
