Reacting to DoorDash at YC Summer 2013 Demo Day (Part 3) #founder #pitch #vc #raisecapital

If you were building the FedEx of today to manage local deliveries, deliveries wouldn't happen overnight or even same day, they would happen on demand. And that's what we're building at Doordash.

It's a brilliant pitch. It's staged, so to speak, in the right way, in terms of the sequence of it starting with a very solid idea of what the problem is, who the competitors are, why this company is different, why what exactly? The product is, the traction and then the future. And here's the thing, if it wasn't so crisp and clear, I wouldn't be able to describe it with to you like this, which means it's memorable, which means someone's going to walk away and tell someone else about this pitch, guaranteed. And that's someone that's going to walk away. If it's a demo day pitch, is an investor. And then what are you going to get? You're going to get meetings, then what are you going to get? You're going to get money.
