David Post: diary of a launch – Next Island

Discussion in 'Next Island' started by EP-Newsbot, Jul 23, 2011.

  1. A recap of the week.. We started our focus on financing and new users. I did well on financing – getting new investors interested and meeting with managers of a capital raise, but did little on the new user side. I have decided (lazily maybe) to wait until our new website goes up next week to make the sign up process easier.
    I did a 7 minute standup at a venture conference. It went really well. What did I learn? Being witty helped (relaxed the audience) but never overdo it or they think you’re not serious, have PASSION and show it, and look at the audience not the notes or the powerpoint. I did not get to finish the ppt but I get great comments from VCs.
    On to next week!
