First round from angels

“So it was 100 k, very small rounds, with seven business angels.”

Pricing the first ten customers

“For our first 10 customers, let's just split that in two.”

Linking revenue to LinkedIn ads

“It is very hard indeed to link revenue to a marketing source, especially LinkedIn since it's, you know, top of funnel.”

Where AI replaces sales reps

“Products that have very fast sales cycles where just, you know, a one call close, AI will replace sales rep.”

Why G2 reviews drive traffic

“G two has very strong authority on SEO and geo. So having lots of reviews and being highly ranked like we are is really driving lots of traffic.”
