For any start-up or start-up entrepreneur who wants to invest 2 hours, I’ll invest two hours free of charge to review your strategy and business plan, funding pitch and funding strategy and/or demo. My comments are based on 30 years of consulting to Start-ups, start-ins and enterprise skunk works at Booz,Allen, Regis McKenna Inc, The Chasm Group (Geoffrey Moore) and my own practice – White Space Strategy. I’ve helped several dozen start-ups get funded and even more make the right choices of how, when and with whom to get (or not get) funding.
Best,
Greg Ruff

Wow — last night was a lot of fun!  If you were there, you know what I mean.   From Brian Solis schooling us on the importance of communication strategy in this social-web-world we all live in, to the free tacos thanks to Rofo and the free Starbucks coffee courtesy of Guy Kawasaki, to the utterly amazing demos from Woya, Notable, Blurb, Scout Labs, Chartbeat and Alltop.   Everything went really well!

[Well, almost everything… I accidently locked my car keys in my trunk!  And the fun didn’t end there: AAA gave me a huge hassle so much so I’m canceling my account with them.  When they finally arrived, the dude poked a hole in my front seat while trying to get the doors open.  When he did finally get them open we (Evan Soloman and Tony Haile, who I was going to drive home) quickly learned the trunk wouldn’t open even with the doors unlocked.  So, I ended up taking a cab back to Sausalito at 1am, leaving the car parked outside Mighty.  Gotta figure out how to go fetch it today. The fun never ends!]

Fun aside, here are some relevant links to the Real Time Demo Ratings and 60 Second Spots from last night!

Hope to see you next week for Widgets Up The Wazoo, The Smackdown!
