Sometimes jumping right into every single thing is not the best, ideal decisions do not all come the same way, and self-esteem has its ups and downs.

Independently, opportunity can be a real wild card.

Regardless, I think an investor can expect a prospect to be putting full time effort into building a relationship that can lead to a growth partnership, and not wanting to miss a day.

Once you get into ongoing communication you may not want to miss an hour.

If there is good allowance for urgency you're still going to need to go full professional and be able to pick up the phone.

Sometimes around-the-clock with backup.

When you can start out that way there's no need for email at all.

Might also be best at a high point of self-esteem, decisiveness, and undelayed action.

Other times when those are not all completely within reach, related actions should be in progress to more than compensate, in preparation for less inhibited times.
