And if you can show traction that you're growing far faster than similar companies, it becomes much much easier to raise capital.
When we were starting Bounce, we noticed players in their local markets. We weren't impressed with the product or execution at the time. It's been really interesting to see the development and some of these players have done quite well.
It seems like most folks started with a slightly different idea but the market pulled everyone closer to the same thing.
I started Bounce out of a burning vision. You can read more about it here: https://medium.com/@codycandee/the-story-behind-bounce-21aeaeb9fb8 https://medium.com/@codycandee/the-story-behind-bounce-21aea...
- Lucadg 7y agoI've never heard of you in the VR space but you seem to have a nice product. Do you go to conferences? Let me know if you need some tips, I'll be happy to share.
- cody3222 7y agoWould def love to connect. Let me know the best way to... I haven’t plugged into many conferences in the space. We’ve been a very small team grinding daily. Thanks for being such a power commenter on this thread btw!
- Lucadg 7y agowell, there's also the danger in getting in the conference trail and going to too many of them. So I'd stick to one or two and prepare them well. I absolutely love VRWS which this year is in France in October. It's the best for networking with the leaders in the VR space. You may want to check out Host London 2020 (from Terrapin) as they seem to give speaking slots to startups. Many of the luggage startups mentioned here were present last year. Drop me an email and I'll introduce you to the organizers. You may even get a free startup booth from them. Also, check-out Trips Community where you may become a partner if you commit to integrate when it's ready, getting some visibility.
