The MVB StartupScript

Step Up Your Game with Just 2 Hours of your Time

When you’re early stage, it’s tempting to believe “if you build it, they will come.” But it’s not enough to have a superior product; to attract investors, customers, and talent, you need to stand out in the marketplace of ideas.

Fortunately, our MVB StartupScript offers you the benefit of decades of marketing expertise honed at tech startups like Salesforce.com, ReleaseIQ (acquired), OrderGuru (acquired), ClearMetal (acquired), Elementum ($100M+ raised), and HeartFlow ($250M+ raised) in a high-value, low-commitment project.

Frequently Asked Questions

Avanish Sahai Headshot“Founders can easily communicate the value proposition because they’re living it 24×7; but the trick is to convert into a simple and repeatable positioning for their teams, their investors, their partners etc. Not easy but so worthwhile.” — Avanish Sahai, Board Member, HubSpot; Co-Founder & Investor, CareVault

Clayton Costa Headshot“One thing we founders do constantly is sell (to prospects, investors, and talent). Anything that simplifies and speeds up this process will have a compound effect on the company. Approaching branding in a lightweight, agile manner, iterating over the process as we learn more about our ICP and target audience, is a wise strategy.” — Clayton Costa, Founder, LucentOps

Susane Berger Headshot“When the only person who can tell the story in the start up is the CEO, it’s either too complex or a message in search of an audience. Simple, clear, specific and repeatable are the words that create action by the audience to not only learn more but vote with their wallets. When your sales and product teams can speak with confidence, you amplify your value and messages. BHM nailed this.” — Susane Berger, Advisor and Board Member

Sanjeev Somani Headshot“I couldn’t agree more on the need for messaging/positioning agility. I often recommend testing your messaging with target buyers using cold outreach even before building the MVP. ” — Sanjeev Somani, CEO @ Tribyl
