SUMMARY:StartUpNV | Lunch 'N Learn | Michael Jacobs
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Michael Jacobs \n\n\nExternally Sourced Sales Resources \nEarly stage companies often have a challenge in bridging the gap between needing sales resources and being able to afford them as full time employees. One way to solve this is to hire external sales resources who will work full time or part time on straight commission. It sounds so simple in theory\, but there are many considerations. This presentation will discuss various aspects of going this route such as: \n\nDetermining if this approach is viable for your product/market\nDefining reasonable parameters for this type of sales roles\nSourcing of viable candidates\n\nAbout Michael \nMy roles in the technical world have been tied to direct business development and sales as well as strategic partner management. These roles in addition to my entrepreneurial sojourns have taught me how to define target markets and their ecosystems in order to originate\, craft and close strategic transactions globally. Whether the role was as an individual contributor or as a team leader I have brought success to the companies I have worked for. \n—————————————————————————————- \n\nDoors open at 12:00 pm\, and the speaker starts at 12:15 pm.\nFree parking is available\nLunch is provided with ticket purchase\, which includes sandwiches\, chips\, salad and beverages.\n\n\n\nLOCATION\nUNR Innevation Center\, 89501

SUMMARY:StartUpNV: Community Opportunity for Your Startup | April Lunch & Learn
DESCRIPTION:Understanding the Community Opportunity for Your Startup \nIn this presentation and mini-workshop\, Bill will share his framework for evaluating the business opportunity for developing a community ecosystem for your startup. Based on 20 + years of experience working with organizations from startups to some of the world’s largest technology brands\, Bill will talk about why he thinks there is an incredible opportunity post-pandemic to develop community ecosystems\, provide examples of how community programs have provided value to the companies that host them\, and get down into the details of what the heck a “community” actually is. \nParticipants will: \n\nLearn about the history of online communities;\nLearn why the triple forces of near-ubiquitous Internet access\, the pandemic\, and the decline of mass social media are creating a unique community opportunity;\nReview examples from both startups and large organizations that are leveraging community-building techniques to innovate and grow;\nBegin crafting their own strategy framework from an exclusive set of templates they will receive as part of the session.\n\nAbout Bill \nBill Johnston is a pioneering online community-builder\, strategist\, and designer. His passion is designing online community ecosystems for purpose-driven organizations. Bill founded Structure3C to help organizations create community experiences that power customer engagement and unlock new market opportunities\, working with industry-leading firms like IBM\, Salesforce\, Intuit\, and Siemens.
