Remind me why I love you – why showing up in person is everything

I’ve run in to this in the funding context, but even more often in the sales context. You really do wonder what happened; you imagine it’s a real reason; but you suspect it’s a non-reason like this.

Thx for the post. I will take a few more swings with a bit more confidence that I’m not necessarily harassing someone who wants to be left alone.

And I will continue to make the travel effort for in-person meetings, in which I am already a true believer - the nod, the glance.

I found it to be a really great reminder for just that reason. When someone has shown a lot of interest in my product and then just disappear, it's up to me to find a way to re-engage with them. Often it's not lack of interest, they've just become so busy that it fell to the bottom to the priority list. Getting a phone call/email from me usually brings it back to the top.

protip: be persistent :-)
