I'd do it if I were rich-- I'd look for companies with:

(1) Breakthrough technologies and/or amazing numbers.

(2) Introverted founders passed over by other investors.

(3) A sales process that is not in-person where being introverted, understated, or shy is not a major handicap. Companies with mostly inbound, viral, indirect, or automated sales processes or that can outsource sales easily would work.



Re #2

What tools could you use to decrease the friction caused because introversion makes a founder harder to find?
