We had one meeting with Scott in his office in Seattle. He arrived 15 mins late to the meeting. After few minutes of listening to our pitch he basically told us that we are not the right folks to do this. There are lot of other smart and intelligent folks working at Amazon and Microsoft whom he can "sponsor" to the exact thing and they would do a better job than us. He then received a phone call and stepped out of meeting for 10 minutes leaving us with his associate who actually heard us well. After he cam back from his phone call he then talked about how great he is and how he knows everyone in the market we were playing. Indirectly, he said we stop what we were doing and should quit. I am second time founder and have met 100+ investors for fund raising between my two startups. I have never ever had this kind of experience from any investor. Most investors are courteous and values your time. Being late is acceptable but telling us that there are smarter folks he knows to do the startup is arrogance. I have raised funding for both my startups. This time, we raised more than $12M in series A.
