Originally published by Sramana Mitra on LinkedIn: You Cannot Outsource Selling Early On
During this week’s roundtable, our guest was Stewart Alsop of Alsop Louie Partners. Stewart has been a VC for 20 years, and before that, a journalist for another 20 years in the technology industry. The conversation was wide-ranging, spanning autonomous vehicles, unreasonable entrepreneurs, etc.
You can listen to the recording of this roundtable here:
Myrio
First up, Ivana Marsic from Zagreb Croatia, pitched Myrio, a digital fitting room technology that has had some validation in Croatia, and is trying to get into the US market. She is under the misconception that she can find a partner to sell on her behalf, which is seldom the case at these very early stages.
ZeetaMinds
Next, Balaji Kamineni from Chennai, India, pitched ZeetaMinds, a SaaS product catering to agencies managing digital outdoor advertising. Balaji is quite close to closing half a dozen paying customers.
