Love this tweet. A demo that can validate concept and share vision can go a long way and even get to your first customer. Remember a proto.io demo for my last #startup that did just that. The demo had a proto.io hack to access the camera on mobile #productmanagement ------ First-time founders: spend months building a big technologically sophisticated product and then write the demo script for launch Second-time founders: write the demo script for launch and then decide whether the product is worth building credits:https://lnkd.in/gytnJfGg

If you missed Crane Venture Partners Flight Summit this year, here's a little teaser that'll make you really really not want to miss it next year 😉 🚀 ✨ #startups #startup #gtm #gotomarket #founder #founders #founderstories #growth
🔔 Attention early stage founders: Join us at Flight next year! DM me if you’re interested in this community event or others throughout the year 🔔 We’re proud of the community of early stage infrastructure, data, security and AI founders we’ve built at Crane Venture Partners. Some are in our portfolio, others we’ve known for years and a few we just met. Last month we were humbled to bring our community together at Flight, our annual GTM summit in London. This is where we bring founders, commercial and technical leaders at early stage B2B SaaS and enterprise companies to first and foremost meet each other, and second, talk about what moves the needle in bringing their products into the right hands. To celebrate the action of the day, we were joined by our early stage VC friends in the evening. We’re excited for continued collaboration among us moving forward. Finally, we’d like to extend a huge thank you to our long-time partners at Amazon Web Services (AWS), Goodwin and HSBC Innovation Banking for playing a key role in making Flight a reality ❤️
In this month's "Obsessions" post, we're discussing how exceptional startup CEOs lead through a crisis, what really matters about "fun" at work, and how you can win the confidence game. Thanks so much for reading!
It's been a little while since I last posted here. I know. I know. It's not the way to build up a "thought leadership persona" or "LinkedIn Top Voice", but hey, I've been busy. Busy building after a pivot, speaking to customers, and having conversations for our first institutional fundraising round, which feels a lot different than the 'friends and family' angel raise that I got used to. I realized that as I prep, the most helpful and most honest feedback I've gotten about the actual pitch deck and presentation has been from other founders or *operational* folks in the tech ecosystem, like marcom leaders, sales geniuses, public speaking experts, etc. Of course there's all of these "share your pitch to a panel of investors" meetups here in Tel Aviv, but often, I realized as an audience member at lots of these events, we founders don't really walk away with 'tachlis' (the Hebrew version of 'get shit done') action items... But when I pitched to other founders or smart friends in general, I really got a lot of really good and super helpful critique – not just about how I am framing Folio itself, but about how fast/slow I spoke, how I stood, how wordy my slides were, how defensive I got when answering questions, etc. So, thanks to the amazing support of the Intel Ignite team, Alon Leibovich, Maya Zimerman, and Amit Gorin, where myself and my team are currently working from and where the event will be hosted, and to Nevo Network, a network that I'm part of for Olim in tech and are providing the snacks, I'm excited to invite Israel-based early-stage founders to a "Founders for Founders" practice pitch night in two weeks, on August 28th, that I'm co-hosting with two early-stage founder friends Matias Sigal and Joel Liurner. If you're a founder looking to get *real feedback* on your pitch without the stress of impressing investors or decision makers in the room or you're a founder that's pitched in the past, a marketer that knows words, a communicator that knows how to stand, or tech-lover that simply wants to meet others and support the founder ecosystem from the inside, please join us! For pitchers: - 7 founders will be chosen to pitch - each one will have the option to have their pitch recorded on video and shared with them after - in addition to opening each pitch up to 3 public feedback responses, every audience member will get a "scorecard" to fill and space to give written feedback for each pitcher For audience members: - willing to give real feedback - not an investor - wanting to drink, snack, mingle, and learn The pitch-slots are going fast, so if you want to pitch, get in on it! See you there! ❤️🚀
