A Deep Dive into Finding Product Market Fit with Sean Sheppard, Venture Capitalist and Managing Partner at Corporate Venture Builder U+. Are you an early-stage startup struggling to attract investors and find product-market fit? Do you ever wonder what you might be missing when it comes to presenting to VCs? Well, we recently spoke with the brilliant mind that is Sean, and he dropped some major knowledge bombs on the subject. Sean is a savvy serial entrepreneur, who knows how to make a business boom! With three successful exits and a background in Venture Capital, Sean is the Managing Partner at Corporate Venture Builder U+. For over 30 years, Sean has been bringing new products to market as a five-times sales founder. With his extensive experience and expertise, he helps startups find their footing in the industry and develop predictable revenue models. It's no wonder Sean has been recognized as one of the Top Sales Influencers You Should Be Following on social media. Transparency is the Key in Entrepreneurial Ventures You know that feeling when someone isn't being totally honest with you? Well, that's exactly what gets VC investors like our speaker here worried. In our conversation with Sean, he pointed out that most young start-ups often lack honesty when presenting to VCs. And that's a big issue because finding product market fit is a tough journey. “...tell me what you don't know and how you're going to find out; to be a learner at all instead of a know-it-all and have that growth mindset...embrace ambiguity. Replace the word rejection in your vocabulary with feedback, and you see feedback as a gift...” ---Sean Sheppard It's not just about what entrepreneurs are holding back from investors; it's about their attitude towards learning and growth. Building a successful startup isn't just about having a great idea or cool technology... It's about understanding the problem you're trying to solve, and the people you're trying to solve it for. Balancing Immediate Gains with Long-Term Strategy One of the pressing topics about market strategy is the difference in mindset between those who prioritize short-term gains and those with a strategic understanding of technology companies. Sean explains why Wall Street guys tend to prioritize quarterly earnings... While those with a strategic understanding of technology companies can see the bigger picture. Adobe's acquisition of Figma is an example. Sean emphasizes the importance and the need to adapt between generational demographics and to own relationships with customers to stay on top in the long run “...if you don't adapt, you are going to die... that doesn't mean you can't reinvent yourself tomorrow. I think everybody can and everybody should. But you have to stay out in front to stay relevant. And that means understanding the Gen Z demographic versus the millennial demographic...” ---Sean Sheppard Sean's Insight about the Shift of the Knowledge-Worker to Intellectual Capitalist “The way that we're investing now is we're giving less money to more companies earlier on...Because applied technology means anybody can do it … and that measured by the cost acquire customer over the customer lifetime value...and it was because they could find product market fit, and they understood the real problem.” - Sean SheppardThis is the age of infinite leverage. In today's age of applied...

Sean Sheppard is the Managing Partner at U.plus. Introducing innovation requires the specialized role of commercialization leaders, either to grow the innovation from within or to find a partner who can from without. Sean shares the attributes of such a leader and how their innovation operating model works. Their functional transformation is a subversive approach toward changing behaviors. They celebrate small wins so their partners can then tell the story to their own stakeholders and continue to get the resources to be successful. HIGHLIGHTS Commercialization leaders: An emerging role to fill a gap Portfolio-based approach towards venture-building Innovating Bridgestone and growing U.plus 600% Survive the recession by investing in your relationships QUOTES Innovation in big companies is both inside-out and outside-in Sean: "Outside-in means I have a problem, I think there's a startup out there that could solve it for me. So I go out and I scout and I try and find a startup that I can either buy from, invest in, acquire, or partner with in some way. And then there's inside-out innovation. We know we can provide a digital version of our current physical experience or we need connected services for our hardware or our equipment, as an example, but we don't have the people to do it." Usher functional transformation, not cultural transformation Sean: "We do what I call functional transformation. Our approach is we want to find the truth about where our product or service fits with the user or market, what to do about it. We want to create a functional learning organization, now the teams that are responsible for doing it, so we do it at the team level, which is quite possible."  Find out more about Sean in the links below: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/seansheppard/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/seanasheppard Email: sean@u.plus More on Andy: Connect on LinkedIn Get Andy's new book "Sell Without Selling Out" on Amazon Learn more at AndyPaul.com Sponsored by: Revenue.io | Unlock exponential growth with an AI-powered RevOps platform | Revenue.io Scratchpad | The fastest way to update Salesforce, take sales notes, and stay on top of to-dos | Scratchpad.com Blueboard | World's leading experiential rewards & recognition platform | Blueboard.com Explore the Revenue.io Podcast Universe: Sales Enablement Podcast RevOps Podcast Selling with Purpose Podcast

Sean Sheppard, Sales Influencer and the Founder and CEO of GrowthX, joins me again on this episode. KEY TAKEAWAYS GrowthX is a Silicon Valley venture capital partnership with an accelerator focused on sales and an academy that trains people in sales, marketing, design thinking, and data science and aims at developing markets. Sean describes the ‘lasting-mover advantage’ for companies that own the customer use case. Sean reminds his clients to go slow so they can go fast later. Look first for the customer profile of ‘Mr. Right Now.’ The first into a market is not the last in the market. Apple was not the first GUI; Google was not the first search engine. Sean gives examples. The first company to the market can rarely sustain its position. Sean teaches three keys to build a lasting-mover advantage. The first is to own the use case by earning it through value. The use case is changing at a faster rate than ever. Andy Grove wrote that only the paranoid survive and that we constantly have to be staying out in front of everyone and everything. Sean’s partner, Andrew Goldner, asks people where their focus is. The second key to build a lasting-mover advantage is to figure out, once you own the use case for the customer, how do you own their thoughts and actions around it? Think about what you’ll do next based on what you’ve learned from what you did for your customers yesterday. They will guide you to where you need to go. Sales organizations are wholly focused on acquisition — closing the deal. They invest in marketing, sales support, Sales Executives and technology but forget about customer onboarding, adoption, retention, and growth. The third key to lasting-mover advantage is to design an organization around the knowledge, skills, and behaviors needed for learning, defining, solving for, and owning the use case as it evolves, with the proper roles in place. Who drives the functional data-driven learning loop? Sean suggests it is not an individual contributor but a person with market development responsibility and with certain skills and knowledge — the commercialization leader. ‘Stage relevance’ refers both to the product within the market, and to the qualities of the person that proactively develops and maintains the evolving use case. Andy says you have to keep learning and developing to be prepared. Sean reads biographies, histories, self-help and personal development books — no fiction. Always have a mindset to learn, grow, and do better. Your life will start to change positively. Turn off the TV and read.
