When I look across my investment portfolio for past 11 years , the #1 issue I think isn’t pricing, or TAM, or making a terrible mishire, or competition. Those all matter, but the best founders fight through them. No the #1 issue ends up being waiting too long to truly go multi-product. No matter what you do, if you are too slow here, growth stalls. I’m seeing all across my investments that are 5, 8, 10, 12+ years out.

Dear SaaStr: How Can I Get The Attention of Software VCs? # 1: Get Out There: Get in TechCrunch. Get on Hackernews. Get on stage at any B tier or A tier event. Get warm intros from any successful founders or seed investors you know. Rent a cheap booth at an event lots of VCs attend. Don’t blow the bank, but this does work. Go to industry parties where VCs are and introduce yourself without being a stalker.
