Ehsan's Growth Commentary
After working with 79+ MarTech companies, the pattern is clear: Outbound Sales at the Pre-Seed stage requires founder-driven execution. The teams that win start smaller than they think they should and iterate 3x faster than their competitors.
The first 90 days of Outbound Sales for MarTech at Pre-Seed: weeks 1-2 audit and baseline, weeks 3-6 first experiments, weeks 7-12 double down on winners. Do not skip the baseline step.
