I was invited by Inc. magazine senior editor Rod Kurtz to participate in the magazine’s Knowledge Series panel last night in Austin. The event, titled “Growth, Guts and Glory” was part of a four-city series being hosted by Inc. The topic was raising capital. I was on the panel along with Joel Trammell, CEO of NetQoS; Larry Warnock, CEO of Phurnace Software; and Patrick Durbin, CEO of Planview.
There were a group of local entrepreneurs with a wide variety of questions concerning the details of raising capital including the appropriate time, source and amount. There are no easy answers to these questions, since most scenarios have to be analyzed on a case by case basis. Some common concerns that were discussed were current low valuations amid the turbulent economic conditions. The consensus was that start ups must not lose focus on their product or services during their efforts to get capital. A strong product or service, including revenues and enthusiastic customers, will only help a company’s position when trying to raise capital.
Ultimately it would be optimum if a company does not need capital and can fund growth organically, but this is not the usual scenario. A lot of these decisions are dictated by the business model, the market conditions, and the effective implementation of the desired capital. Obviously there is a tremendous amount of market research and planning required to closely estimate your burn rate, runway and needed capital. Even if you decide not to raise capital, that’s a worthwhile exercise. And lastly, partnering with the right investors, whether angels or VC’s, can be a make or break decision, so choose wisely.
After months of work and a lot of input from customers, partners and our own internal team, the new Mumboe web site made its debut this week. Why the change? We are always striving to make both our site and the Mumboe application simpler and easier to use, while incorporating the key information and features our customers want.
We undertook this update with two goals in mind:
Make the the web site’s design more in line with the application for a more seamless experience;
Add more interactive features and content to help potential customers, press and other visitors to the site quickly understand what we do and how they can benefit.
As part of the design, we also created a new About Mumboe video. It’s not your usual “corporate video,” so be sure to check it out!
Kudos to the Mumboe design team for keeping the emphasis on clarity and usability, while giving the site a fresh look and feel. Check out the new design, and tell us what you think!
