They may not be the biggest startup accelerator, but they sure are the best at KZread. Quality stuff, definitely makes Dreamit synonymous with smart money - in my mind at least.

Steve, you might just saved my startup. I got myself involved in sales to enterprises with long sales cycles. You opened my eyes. I want to shake your hand one day, man. Thank You.

Thanks Steve very helpful!

Straight to the point. Love the analogy. Now, let's go Fishing.

Brilliant, quick and to the point thanks. Loved the outtakes, thought you were just too good!

Thanks for letting us know you are finding the whole series valuable. Please let us know about your medtech startup's progress and if Dreamit can help in accelerating your success!

These series are fantastic. Steve I have a question Our startup is an IT platform on the tourism sector, more specifically on the tour and experiences sector but our focus is on some African countries. We've been struggling with defining our early adopters mainly due to the lack of information that the countries have on their own tourism stats (tourist profile, behaviour, ...). We find mostly generic information. So we have been basing ourselves in global tourism trends and behaviours instead. Do you have an advice for that?

Glad you are looking so deeply. I would try to dig in hard. If you can't' find the data make sure to carefully document your assumptions and state them openly on any slides where you talk about this data. Thx for watching!

The fishing analogy is great....Now I know exactly what fishes i am targeting and where they are.....great.....

Thanks for the vid G 🌊🌊🌊

Thank you for the video. How do you recommend an early stage startup finds their beachhead market? For my health tech startup, we know going for the big tuna deep in the ocean isn’t the right beachhead, so how can we set our sights on the right one?

Good question. List your top benefits in priority order. Find the market segments that align most strongly and that most deeply appreciate those specific benefits. Also looking for markets where you can close deals at the fastest possible pace. Great if the targets can be geographically close. I hope some of these ideas help you get started. -- Steve

Great advice, thank you very much!

Super great analogy. Actually, I just realized this a few days back. Earlier I was going after national schools but then I realized I should first try to reach out to schools in my locality.

I need more information on how to choose early customers, please advise where to look

At first I did not expect much, but this is brilliant advice. We aligned with my research.

Should the competitor be a direct competitor, exactly named, specific brand/company or it can be one descriptive word e.g. bank? e.g. FinTech landscape is huge with different players in the market and competition is somewhere in between the niches. Thank you.

Try to list direct competitors in the order you expect customers or investors to ask about them. You can list "buckets" of companies as well if needed.

Hey, I really like the video, I work for a real estate startup and we want to push out a strategy that is not there in the market yet! Could you help me with a template for the GTM strategy?

Thank you for this killer video, it really helps me a lot! One question I would want to ask, I have all the details drilled down with me but how should I put in in a pitch slide?

@stevebarsh1224

4 жыл бұрын

Thx for watching and your question. Define on your pitch deck slide an area that describes the *attributes* of your ideal target customer and why those attributes (e.g, small hospitals (they buy faster), in major cities (higher density), that have a head of innovation (we know they care about innovation). Then define your first 1-3 initial target customer segments based on the critters. You can also define what channels you'll use to get to those customers (direct sales, conferences, etc.). Hope that helps!

Pedestrian caught speeding, pedestrian says "but officer look the other cars were speeding too." The cop says "when you go fishing, are you going to catch all the fish or just a few." >> Target marketing >> Find your IDEAL CUSTOMER SEGMENTS & and create your IDEAL CUSTOMER PROFILE ladies and gentlemen.

Thanks a lot for this video it really helped me to understand the criterias for my pitch deck slide. It would be even better if you could add an example slide to it :)

Amazing

Open my mind, thank you so much, it will help my next strategy. Greeting from Indonesia

I get the analogy of finding close by untapped and accessible small fish, but if the boat represents your value prop and the fish represent the customer, isn’t a core component making choices about what fishing rod you need to use? By that I mean how do you build a repeatable scalable way to get those fish from water to boat. That’s the hardest part about G2M in my opinion. I think the devils in the detail... who is your buyer? What messaging works well? Who are the other stakeholders you need to convince? Land & expand or top down? To me those represent the fishing rod...
