"No, we are a proof that the TechCrunch club is not
hyper-exclusive and if your startup has a good product
or service, they will eventually cover you."
I actually got the opposite impression. You had to beg and plead to get covered...made posts asking for community support and you only got covered because you just became too big of an annoyance. And let's not forget that you actually got yourself established with paying big name customers first.
Meanwhile the YC company got coverage just for launching.
- paraschopra 16y agoI wouldn't call it begging but demanding. There is a sea of difference between these two terms. That's why I said the club is not hyper-exclusive. Yes, it is difficult to get covered if you aren't funded but not impossible.
