While B2B and B2c certainly aren’t things of the past, it’s time for businesses to make room for H2H, or human-to-human connections.

Zoom is a B2B company Pinterest and Lyft are obviously B2C companies. That not only bodes well for strong companies seeking to go public, regardless of whether they’re B2B or B2C. In just the last month or so we’ve seen Lyft go public ( my analysis of the company’s S-1 here ) and more recently, Zoom and Pinterest.

Last week, in part one of the B2B versus B2C series, I explained there are several reasons as to why entrepreneurs should venture into “B2B” (“Business to Business”) service based companies as opposed to any form of “B2C” (“Business to Consumer”) company, “B2B” product-oriented company or strictly a web-based B2B firm.

We attempted to use Waterfall and market ourselves as B2C. We changed our model to B2B and adopted Agile around 2002. Having lived through this, I wholeheartedly agree that if we had not had enough runway, adopted an agile/lean approach or had patience from our investors it would have failed miserably. . It was a disaster.

And the urgency stems not from an agile competitor, a first-mover market, or a power-law distribution of reward, but rather from the need to achieve enough velocity to overcome the tremendous gravitational pull of business-as-usual. In my case, the scarce resources, rather than time and money, are time and political capital.
