What really matters to you?……Looking for Investors

Brian Zimmerman

March 26, 2010

I have focused much of my blogging effort around sales and marketing support, as that is my primary role at OpenView Partners.

I thought I would change it up a bit and ask those companies looking for a venture capital investment to answer one important question.

What are the most important attributes that your organization looks for when evaluating/selecting a venture capital firm? (i.e. past experience of senior partners, performance of current portfolio companies, the size of the fund, etc.)
As we suggest to all of our expansion stage companies, a well defined competitive advantage is critical.

Help us define ours!!

Your comments are appreciated.
