Yesterday I wrote a post about The Silent Benefits of PR in which I pointed out that most young companies I encounter don’t fully grasp the benefits of PR because they are less measurable than product milestones or customer acquisition analyses (like CAC/LTV). When to start PR?

Are you trying to build buzz, but don’t have the cash to launch a full-fledged PR campaign? I emphasize that the best PR you can build is through satisfied customers with high Net Promoter scores. In other words, you should focus first on a great product/service, and only after you’ve achieved that worry about PR.

When I was reading the Fab.com website I noticed that the CEO refers to Fab’s “one thing” as being design. They’re the place focused on design. They think design wins. So why would raising venture capital be any different. So make sure you have a solid PR strategy. Create urgency.

In his white paper How Private Equity and Venture Capital Investors Are Eating Their Own Dogfood , PEVCTECH.com founder David Teten explored how private equity and venture capital investors are trying to automate more of their job. In addition to off-the-shelf products, many VCs talk about their own proprietary systems.

Get your PR pitches out. Get a designer to class up all your materials. I'm stunned at how few entrepreneurs take the time to get a graphic designer to do their pitch deck for them. When things are busy, you don't really have a lot of time for this, so get working on it on an off day.

Huge structural under-employment in much of the country and full employment in some niche tech markets where it’s impossible to hire developers, designers or sales professionals. It’s what I love about entrepreneurship and about venture capital. You know what I’m talking about. You feel it, too.

While I love TechCrunch, the post and the quote about the PR agency (“one PR firm has discovered a dynamite strategy, throw ethics out the window&# ) left me wondering; how do PR agencies interact with TechCrunch and other blog and review sites? Is this behavior an outlier or is it the norm in the PR industry?

Marketing with long payback is precisely what requires venture capital. Storage is what’s known as “highly fragmented,” meaning easier for a new entrant to get traction if it could design a better product / service / experience. The top 5 players combined control less than 25% of the market.
