Paying Attention

People send me pitch decks and executive summary documents and “must read” PDFs about their hot start-up or their fancy new product on a daily basis.

And then they get bent out of shape when I point out the seven spelling errors scattered throughout, or egregiously improper punctuation, or the abundance of grammatical errors.

I’m sorry I annoyed you by reading through the pitch deck/summary/report and paying attention to what you wrote.
