Panelists:
MassTLC’s
sales and marketing community is launching a year of programming on
what it takes to go to market successfully. The first of our events
focuses on the planning and strategy of launching your product or
solution and how you get buy-in (and marketing funds!) from your boss –
whether that be your CFO, CMO, or your board of directors.
David Skok, General Partner at Matrix Partners, renowned entrepreneur, and author of the popular blog www.forEntrepreneurs.com
will keynote the event and share what he has learned from launching and
scaling companies and working with the "best of the best” in the
software industry to help increase success. David will also cover his
methodology for designing and optimizing customer acquisition funnels.
Joining
David will be speakers representing a range of organization sizes and
lifecycle. You will hear from a recently-funded venture, a growing
venture that has achieved scale, and a "venture-minded” division
operating within a public software company. The group will share their
approach for devising go-to-market strategies – both what’s worked and
not worked for them – and how thinking like a VC can stretch your
marketing dollar.\
