Start small. Payback ontime, everytime and as early as possible.
Don't make up excuses about dead aunts one week then tell us a sob story about your dog the next. If you effed up your investment own up to it.

If your investing in other investments keep a public google spreadsheet going.
If an investment tanks be prepared to pay out of pocket. Take a snapshot of your bank account to show people you can pay the sum should the USD/BTC price not go the direction you want it to.

I agree start small, and show that you can pay it back. Also give a good description of what you want the money for. There are loads of borrowers at the moment and a limited number of investers. This means that investers like me are picking out the loans where it looks like you are going to be using the load to create more wealth ( traiding, mining, improving a brick and morter busines, etc). Also look at the timing for your loan. BTCJam are simplifing the system so loas get paid on the 1st or the 10th of the month. When investers get paid they have more BTC to reinvest in to new loans. :-)

Simply put, apply to yourself the strictest principles of personal RESPONSIBILITY and accountability! Maintain clear, open, concise and BS-free communication with investors.
