Finding the right investors for your business is one of the most important decisions you will make as an entrepreneur. In a lackluster economy, it is even more important to hone your pitching skills and stand out from the competition for funding.

To help you capture the attention of potential investors, we invited one of the "sharks" from ABC's reality TV show "Shark Tank" to take your questions live in an exclusive online chat. The popular show, whose third season premiere air is Jan. 20, spotlights entrepreneurs as they pitch five investors -- the "sharks" -- to secure funding in exchange for a piece of their company.
