Ask HN: Q about about corporate accounts.

Posted by grinnick on Thursday February 27, 2014 @05:12PM
from the ask-hn dept.

I started a "startup" 3 months ago and I've been plugging away at coding and marketing it on the side. I've got a couple of paying customers but things are still pretty raw.

Today a person reached out to me to ask who to contact about corporate accounts. I feel like I need to take advantage of this small opportunity but I'm not really sure how.

It would take me 2 to 4 weeks to have the app ready for enterprise use (as I imagine it) at even the most basic level.

What's my play?

Honesty, tell them you're still working on scaling and interview them about their needs.

Now stop posting this over and over, or you're likely to get banned.

Actually, this is the 14th post on the subject. That said, OP: quick, post it some more, some people haven't seen it yet!

It's possible that his account has been hijacked.

What service does your startup provide?

You need to be more persistent.
