The 4-step playbook
1. Confirm fit
Before spending a minute writing a cold email, make sure your startup matches South Park Commons's actual focus. They're most active at pre seed, seed stage. If you're outside their thesis, save yourself the rejection.
2. Get a warm intro
Cold inbound to South Park Commons works occasionally but the conversion is brutal. Find a mutual connection: a portfolio founder, an LP, or a fellow VC who's co-invested with them. LinkedIn's "see who else they're connected with" view is your best tool. If you have no mutuals, build relationships in their community first — comment thoughtfully on their content, attend events they speak at, get on their radar.
3. Tight 10-slide deck + clear ask
Your deck should be 10–12 slides covering: problem, solution, why now, market, traction, business model, team, competition, what you're raising, and the ask. See our pitch deck archive for slide-by-slide breakdowns of famous decks.
4. Follow up like a pro
If they pass, ask for one piece of honest feedback and one referral. Don't argue. Don't beg. Investors talk — and the founders who handle no's gracefully are the ones they remember when their next round opens. Keep South Park Commons on your update list for 6-month progress mails even after a pass; many funded deals come from second tries.
