Event summary

The importance of an excellent Sales- and Go-to-market strategy for startups

Many startups have learned the hard way that developing great products is not enough to be successful. For many startups, and especially for startups with founders with a technical focus, sales is a new area. The realization that specific targeted sales is a key aspect for the business, is important for the success of your startup. Your clients are the basis for your company to succeed or not: “Remember the client is always right..”.

Assuming you’ve done your market validation and know your specific client target group: What strategy will be used to sell the solution in the market, and what does this mean for your sales team, the business model, branding, marketing etc.? Your company is unique. However, it is a fact that sales processes hardly differ from company to company, and that’s where potential can be unlocked!

Briskr, OostNL and Orion have joined forces to support serious startups and their founders by offering this extended workshop series. During this energetic workshop series, consisting of four parts, you will learn what you can do to boost sales in your company. Let’s unlock the full potential of your organization!
