#ACTON25 - Leveraging the learnings of six startup generations (part 8) – How AlphaSights became one of the torch bearers of the expert economy. Making good decisions is already challenging under the best of circumstances and even the smartest leaders need access to relevant and reliable knowledge. They are looking for perspective gained through a deeper, human understanding of how things work rather than pure information. AlphaSights connects decision and deal makers to the knowledge they need to make smart decisions for their organization. Founded by two Stanford fellows in London amid the Lehman crisis in 2008 — and since then supported by a VC from Munich — the company is now the world’s leading knowledge broker. With its global pool of specialists and insights into any kind of market, AlphaSights has thus become one of the torch bearers of the rising expert economy. Be it the next trailblazing unicorn, or the hidden industry champion — there is no one-size-fits-all journey to long-term value. Behind every time and each pioneer there is a unique story worth telling. As part of our 25th anniversary, we aim to tell those pioneer stories again for passing on the learnings of prior startup generations to the next – stay tuned! https://lnkd.in/dDTntwy

Community Manager, Freelance Sales & Marketing Expert, Startup Founder and Matchmaking Enthusiast...
What adventures are waiting for you in 2024? After launching, building, shaping and growing behind the scenes. My big professional adventure of this year is to be fully focused on my own businesses 😬 Although I'm all but inexperienced in taking risks, stepping out of my comfort zone and (abruptly) closing doors to see which new ones open-up. I’m still a little nervous, maybe even slightly scared, especially after 20+ years of working as an employee. Luckily I have such an amazing group of people to work with…. and with co-founders like Petar Tahchiev and Antonio Portuesi, things can’t really go wrong ;) What professional adventures will you dive into in 2024? 🐬 Mine will revolve around; 1. The Rhamnous.io Community -> Working with freelancers can be a hassle. That’s why the Rhamnous Community makes it easy for you with Freelancer Matchmaking and a range of Community Services to help starters, SME’s and Startups with things such as sales, marketing, design, content writing, content creation, social media, websites & applications, video editing and much more. We’d love it if you follow the Rhamnous Community to learn more about the experts, partners, community services and more -> https://lnkd.in/eeu8t8u4 2. INTELENER's Spinoffs, Market & Technology Readiness Services -> After joining Intelener in 2020. We started fine tuning our services offering, and listing the solutions that we wanted to scale. Trakkem Pro was already successfully launched, with the GTM of Cicada coming this year. Learn more about Intelener’s services and solutions by following us -> https://lnkd.in/e7z8-_Jg #Rhamnous #businessgrowthexpert #businesssolutions #smallbizsuccess #startupjourney #digitalstrategy #freelancecommunity #remotework #freelancemarketing #freelancelife #FreelancerBranding #entrepreneurlife #startupjourney #businessminded #successmindset #entrepreneurship101 #entrepreneurshipjourney #buildingdreams #newbeginnings #newyear2024 #happynewyear #Bye2023 #newgoals

Founders! I need some help. I’m parked up at Glastonbury already and about to turn off my notifications… but I’d like to capture some data while I’m away 👀 Myself and Meg Dilnot are working on something exciting and we need your input ✨ Both of us have worked with early stage founders for years, in house and freelance, and have witnessed the same challenges cropping up time and time again. We’ve got loads of ideas for how we can make marketing and sales easier for startups in the beginning. And how to set you up for success from go-to-market through to scale. But first, we need to validate those ideas with research (and that’s where you come in) This survey takes 05:02 seconds to complete. I timed it. https://lnkd.in/eUDRtaN3 So if you’re a startup founder I’d be very grateful if you could spare that time to fill it in - especially if you’re struggling with the commercial side of things. In return we’ll randomly select a few respondents to get a free power hour with us - to dive into your strategy or help with a specific revenue problem 🚀 Thanks in advance!

Building in public 👀 Over the years, I’ve spoken with a bunch of founders about it, so I thought I’d better walk the talk and post something here👇🏼 In case we haven’t met, I’m a brand-led marketing and product leader with corporate, startup and agency experience. I started my career in advertising as global brands were going, ‘What’s this digital thing?’ and then ‘What’s this social thing?’. I've been part of the London startup community in various states of starting, failing, scaling, operating and supporting for the past decade or so. This included 3.5 years at Google for Startups, where we supported founders across the UK to grow and launched the Google for Startups Black Founders Fund in Europe. Recently, I built the growth engine for a Series B private market FinTech. I enjoy problem-solving and harnessing creativity, culture, and technology to make a positive impact. Since leaving Floww at the start of the year, I’ve enjoyed a couple of months catching up with people, spending time with family, doing a bit of freelance, and getting up to Norwich and Cambridge for some East of England tech. I’ve even had time to read a book or two. I can recommend Chris Dixon’s ‘Read, Write, Own’. There are three things I’m working on: 1️⃣ I’m going FRACTIONAL, not freelance (I’ll unpack that another time). In short, advice is great, but execution is everything. So, I’m launching a fractional service designed to support venture-backed high-growth companies going from building to scaling (circa Series A to B+). It’s not a studio or an agency. It’s me building and delivering a systematic approach for your business to drive results. I focus on business strategy and brand, your go-to-market motion (some people call it building a scalable growth engine, whether it's product, sales, marketing-led or, in reality, a magical mix of them all), and execution (internally or with external help). I’m keen to work with more deep tech companies in #Climate #AI #HealthTech. 2️⃣Introducing OFFICE HOURS. I want to continue supporting early-stage companies beyond the odd angel cheque. Ironically, having more freedom over my own time means I need to be more structured about it. So, each month, I will block time and share a link to chat about fundraising, marketing, product, and hiring. Starting on Wednesdays, the link is in the first comment. 3️⃣At an ECOSYSTEM level, I’m speaking with a few people about some research, reports and the odd dinner. There’s some big stuff happening, a lack of data and signposting around navigating the scaling talent gap, the role of the platform continues to grow and evolve, plus liquidity in funds is a good one. More to follow on everything above. 👉🏼 So, if you’re a founder who’s just raised or looking to raise, work in platform, talent, community or investment side at a VC, a small studio who wants to work with more startups or an old colleague or a friend of a friend… drop me a message, and let’s chat. #FractionalCMO #OfficeHours
