In the world of early-stage tech startups, nothing is as omnipresent and deified/vilified as PITCHING TO INVESTORS. The problem is; although investors are useful and often crucial, without understanding how their processes work and how they think, you're likely to have an awkward time as a founder pitching them. This talk focuses on several key points in pitching correctly, and offers advice on how to search, validate, and attract early-stage venture capital investors.

Web Analytics Project Brief: How to MOBILIZE and ENERGIZE your analytics team

Rachelle Maisner

Originally presented at the eMertics Summit in Boston 2014. Download for slide notes. In the advertising biz, nothing is more sacred than a well-written project brief. For years, great project briefs have enabled creative departments to develop award winning and effective advertising. But the brief isn’t just for creatives, or even just for agencies. Rachelle (@5ftdynamite) shows how to leverage this agency artifact for your analytics team to inspire creative, out-of-the-box analytical thinking while also driving your projects forward on-time and on-budget.

Switching On the Growth Engine in Your Small Consulting Practice

GYK Antler

This presentation is from the Zintro Webinar Series: Marketing Tips for Consultants. Our presenter is Brian Gladstein, CEO and Founder of Explorics, a unique marketing firm that helps B2B companies engage enthusiastic customers through loyalty and advocacy programs. He is a serial entrepreneur, co-chairs Boston’s Lean Startup Challenge, and also serves as a go-to-market coach for growth-stage companies. Brian is an MIT graduate with an MBA from Stanford. We hope this personal story of how Explorics created a growth engine for its business will help other consulting firms and entrepreneurs approach their own businesses in interesting ways. "Fifteen months ago, my marketing consulting practice was at a crossroads,” explains Brian. “No matter what we did – we couldn’t seem to scale the way we wanted to without client projects suffering – we were stuck. In this webinar, we will discuss how we systematically took apart our business and rebuilt it from the ground up into an engine for growth. Today, we are at the center of one of the most exciting transformations happening in the B2B Marketing and PR space, and business is booming." Key takeaways in this presentation: - The importance of focus - Work on the business, not in the business - Choose clients based on how they fit with your desired income stream - Building mechanisms that transfer trust to your staff - Design every project to run without you - Train your staff to solve problems without you Be sure to check out http://explorics.com/aa to take an Advocate Assessment for your company - this is a custom-built roadmap for measuring and increasing organic advocacy.
