Here is a recap of the Paparelli Zoom Chat for Entrepreneurs #26
The theme was “Getting to the quick exit (after 9 years)”
Special thanks to my guest John Hanger, co-founder and former CEO of Contact at Once and Car360.
Quote of the call: “You have to believe in your partners (co-founders). You have to believe in your business plan, and it is a test of your faith.” John Hanger.
7 key takeaways from this call:
Your market value = your past successes + your superpower + your industry expertise.
The more startup experience you have, the more you know that you must focus narrowly to get out of the ground.
Sweat equity is earned through personal sacrifice and commitment. There is no shortcut.
Your go-to-market strategy must uniquely position you with your competition. Fit neatly into the market.
Moving your product to a new, additional market creates a tremendous amount of complexity in product management, marketing, and sales.
The greatest accelerator to the next stage to growth is enterprise sales.
The greatest impediment to scaled growth is culture. Who in your company knows how to build a really big business...including you?
