The Backseat Startup Podcast

In this episode of the Backseat Startup podcast, we had Stepan Khzrtian and Serop Serop, Co-Founders of Corpora, on the show. A Reddit user said they have been struggling with getting their first customer. Andrew and the Corpora team gave their thoughts.

One of the best ways to raise capital is by getting high quality warm intros. BUT, as most of us know, getting those are notably challenging. The industry is insular and 99% of founders are on the outside looking in. This leaves the only option left for most founders, which is cold outreach. But how many cold emails are founders supposed to send before they get a high quality meeting out of it? How much time is wasted sending cold outreach with no return? Enough is enough. Introducing Seedscout.

Seedscout is a cold outreach alternative that relies 100% on an autonomous double opt in intro system. Log in, pick a plan, and request intros to investors at ease. On Seedscout, know what investors are active, what ones have recently engaged, and send intro requests to ideal investors with a click of a button. Once connected, carry on the conversation over email and feel free to take it "off platform.”

Seedscout isn't meant to replace your cold outreach, but be a layer on top of it. If you want to scale your startup network in a timely fashion, check it out below.

“Nobody wants to fail, but trust me, it's not the end of the world. Actually, think of failure as your tough-love teacher. Yeah, it stings, but you also learn a ton from it. What you really need to watch out for is hitting a plateau and just sitting there—that's the real danger zone. When you're not moving up or down, you're not learning or growing, and that gives everyone else the chance to pass you by.”

That's where Cuvée Counsel comes in: I use an innovative subscription model to ensure your legal fees are reasonable and predictable.
