Listen "Once Upon A Startup- with Prateek Sanjay"
Episode Synopsis
This is episode 10 of Once upon a Startup.
Don’t you love a good story?
One where you are snuggled up beside a fire with a mug of tea listening to grandma narrate something about a princess and an ogre?
Adulting makes us forget the simple joy associated with a story. So we bring you something new-
Once upon a start-up
Founders are busy creating their businesses. Most times though they are riddled with self-doubt. They need mentoring. But they do not know whom to approach. How to ask? They need connections. They need strategic partnerships, not financial funding. Investors are a treasure trove of knowledge. So much experience. So many founders, pitch decks, and funds allocated. They do not have the time to counsel each founder individually. Wouldn’t it be amazing if we got a bird’s eye view of the journey of founders, the troubles they face, and some cool start-ups in the making while also learning about investor mindset, cold e-mails, due diligence, and funding?
I am your host- Attorney / IP professional and Start-up Founder Shalini Menezes.
I am passionate about intellectual property – especially patents. Valuation, monetization, and commercialization of patents is my current passion and my startup revolves around them.
As a founder, I have a zillion questions popping up in my mind each day and when I spoke to other founders, it seemed like we were all in the same boat.
We have questions. Investors, Other experienced founders, and mentors have the answers.
Thank you for joining me on another fabulous episode of my podcast Once upon a startup. It is my hope to collect questions from founders and get answers from others who are farther along on the journey.
“Once upon a start-up” is a show where we chat with a founder/investor/mentor in each episode. We learn about the foibles, the mistakes, and the learnings wrapped in stories- just like the ones grandma told you.
Our Guest today has entrepreneurship lessons ingrained from a young age watching his parents build businesses and fail and succeed multiple times.
He drops a value bomb every day on LinkedIn. Sometimes more than once.
He has lived in multiple countries. Speaks multiple languages.
He talks about
#nocode, #coldemail, #angelfunding, #startuptools, and #outboundsales
Our guest today is the angel investor whisperer who gets you results fast.
And is THE outbound specialist for founders.
Let’s welcome the inimitable Prateek Sanjay!
