Your premise is great.

If you have a skill or talent that you are offering to an investor it is crucial to know what those skills are and how valuable they are. If you are timid or weak the investor may never know what you can do. If you undervalue yourself they may see an opportunity to exploit and work you to the bone for very little return.

The key is to know how much value you will be bringing to the investor and make sure that the investor will make a good return on his investment while you, the innovator also get good remuneration for their effort and skills.

Still, I didn't hear much of a marketing pitch from you. I'm curious how valuable you think your skills are and how much they would make a potential investor :)
