I recently had the pleasure of meeting an incredibly humble, candid, and supportive female founder Sharon Gillenwater with a nonconventional path to tech and entrepreneurship. Without any VC investments, she successfully exited her startup, Boardroom Insiders, which was acquired by Euromoney for $25M in 2022! 🚀 Our conversation left me with some powerful reminders about entrepreneurship: 1) 𝐓𝐫𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐟: Your experiences gives you unique view of unmet needs. Trust that you are capable of building solutions to address those needs. 2) 𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐲 𝐂𝐥𝐨𝐬𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐂𝐮𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐫𝐬: So you can continuously add value as customers needs are always evolving. This not only helps in renewing contracts seamlessly but also strengthens your relationship with them. 3) 𝐄𝐱𝐩𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐍𝐞𝐭𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤: When you feel "stuck", reach out and talk to people. Networking can provide fresh perspectives and engage folks who may be a part of your startup journey. I’m inspired by her journey and the insights she shared, and I look forward to reading her book on her startup journey (link below) #Entrepreneurship #TechStartups #FounderStories #Inspiration #Networking

🚀 Exciting News! On May 23rd, I'll be joining the panel of judges at the VC Fast Pitch Competition in St. Petersburg, FL, hosted by Black Dog Venture Partners and Scott Kelly. 🌟 Engaging with startup founders and discovering their innovative visions is always a highlight for me. The Founder Institute's One Minute Pitch offers a dynamic framework that helps founders to present their ideas succinctly and impactfully. 🔑 Key elements of a standout pitch include: - Defining Your Offering: What are you bringing to the table? - Understanding Your Customer: Who are you serving? - Solving a Problem: What significant issue does your product address? - Highlighting Your Unique Value: What is your "secret sauce"? - Market Potential: What is the market size, and who are two well-known comparables? - Company Status: Provide a snapshot of your team, product, and funding stage. - The Ask: Clearly state what you're looking for from investors. 📈 Remember, it’s crucial to articulate what’s in it for the listener—this connection can make all the difference! Looking forward to seeing the innovative pitches and the energy of the entrepreneurial community! 🎤 Leave your tips for startup founders in the comments. Thanks! #venturecapital #venturedebt #startups #founders #startuppitch #fundraisingpitch
