The purpose of this blog...

Oscar Wilde once wrote, “Experience is simply the name we give our mistakes.”
My career has been spent with early stage technology companies at the intersection of product, marketing, sales and business development. I have 30 years of “experience” in these areas to draw from. Many lessons over that were often expensive, and painful. 


Most of us care deeply about the quality our work. We take enormous pride in what we’ve done well. My career would not have been successful without people that believed in me and shared their stories with the hope they could help me along. My goal with this blog is to share some of those stories and the lessons I’ve learned - to pay it forward.

Business Development Defined

It may seem like a silly question to ask, but businesses have widely different visions for their business development team. Small companies and start-ups may see the term as interchangeable with “sales.”  A business development executive needs to employ all the tools of a great sales person. The process of establishing a new account - especially with an enterprise client - is certainly a sales process. However, there is a key and important difference. Business development involves getting other organisations to promote your product. It involves a convincing the business partner to commit valuable resources that may require critical changes in they way they do business. This requires the business development executive first understand the partner’s corporate objectives intimately and be capable of installing trust between the organisations.  A single effective business development executive will often out-perform an entire sales team. They can do this by leveraging...

The Five Pillar Go-To-Market Strategy

Image
A look at the last thirty years will show you time and again how innovative products - built by smart and talented people have failed, or fallen far short of their potential. You may recall a favorite program, service or startup that seemed destined for successes before something went wrong along the way. Too often we see great products die shortly after they get to market. We celebrate the brilliant technical minds of our engineering teams for good reasons; they find creative solutions to challenging problems. In truth, selling technology - bringing new programs and services to market – may be even more difficult than building the product in the first place. My firm, Ramp Equity Partners, is hired to address the unique challenges early stage technology companies face when taking new services to market. The executives and board members for the firms that hire us, see Ramp as rainmakers. We built a track record of working with small teams to do great things, but we lear...

The Go-To-Market Self Assessment Reberic

Image
My firm, Ramp Equity Partners, is hired to create transformative growth. We work with strong leaders and bright minds in innovative companies. They aim to create disruptive and industry-changing products. Even the best executives in the world can benefit from sober self-assessment. We created a go-to-market assessment rubric comprised of 24 questions in five key areas where execution is key to creating transformative growth. We do this at the start of our engagement. Start by asking each team member to independently score the company through this rubric. Compare your scores. Does your team feel the same about your strengths and weaknesses? Average your scores in each of the five subjects. We suggest that scores under four would require a plan of action. Beyond highlighting your strengths and weaknesses, this may also shine a light on areas where the executive team is disconnected from each other – areas where the team’s plans can be better developed and communicated. _...
