The Paper Bag Man has gone loose on the community!
Have you seen him? He looks like any impeccably dressed person in a nice suit, but is unidentifiable due to the large, brown paper bag on his head. Be cautious around him, we do not know who he is or what he is hiding!
You get the point, right? I mean, ask yourself whether or not you would trust a person approaching you on the street with a paper bag on his head. Trust, credibility and accountability go hand in hand, and adding a picture to your profile is a simple step to improving your credibility and signaling this to all who view your profile. In a community built on on-going trust and transparency in operations, this is imperative to realize. From transparent and honest communication, to having professionals actors managing the community fund and all investment procedures, to not taking commission on direct investments – we are trying to ensure trust and credibility in the community, making Grow VC a safe haven for all business prospects.
In the Grow Venture Community, we share our passions and ventures with each other, why would we not share our faces? Furthermore, we feel that this also empowers the community to act on it’s own – the vision is that the community would be self-sustaining, in a way that development and progress occurs from within the community. As you develop networks and relationships within the community, mutual trust and respect are cornerstones of these interactions.
This humorous update does actually serve a purpose. We sincerely hope you do take our most humble suggestion and use a picture on your Grow VC profile – a picture that might resemble you a bit more.
Your humble guide,
Markus
