Ive occasionally worked with executive recruiters, for example in hiring a CTO for my first company, Eve.com. This time, I decided to handle the process myself. Minted.com is both a global design community and stationery retailer. So we ended up offering the job to Niniane, she accepted, and we couldnt be more thrilled.

Avoid events that are never timely, i.e. anniversaries, holidays and “Go blue for/Go red for [insert cause here]” months. You can introduce the reporter to other entrepreneurs, or key him or her into events before they become news. Read up on the tech news sites you’re pitching, then do a little soul-searching.
