Source: Clarity Richard Lee Nov 30, 2016Very helpful with determining the best direction to go with my start up. Look forward to speaking with again.
Source: Clarity Martin Johnson Apr 12, 2016Even though it seems may seem obvious that your product should be desirable to one of those companies, it usually needs to fit very well into one of their long-term strategic roadmaps. Learning whether that's the case and at which company take a lot of digging and you need inside info that can only come from talking to someone already at one of the companies or that recently left. That's where I would start -- speak with as many of those contacts as you can and zero in on the right target -- then build as many warm intros as possible at the target.
Typically yes. And the more traction you already have, the more historical info you have on sales, the farther into the future you should model. 3 years is typical if you have traction and knowledge on which to base your projections.
