Recipient TidBits - Who Do You Wish You Had Met Before Applying For The Seed Fund?

As part of their participation in the Business Vitality Seed Fund, we asked each of our recipients a series of questions to get their view on entrepreneurship, the Seed Fund process, and other entrepreneurial related TidBits. The following is their answers to the question: Who do you wish you had met before applying to the Seed Fund?

I wish I would have been able to reach out and talk to a previous recipient of the Seed Fund. Since I was the first candidate and first recipient of the seed fund, I didn't have that chance. But if I were to give advice to someone who is thinking about applying to the seed fund, I would tell them to reach out to a current seed fund recipient and ask their advice for how to get the most out of their time in front of the review board.

I wish we had met someone who knew a little more about selling physical products. We have since met a few advisors who have helped us with some of our questions about product releases and pricing strategies. Most companies and advisors available are more into the tech start up then a product startup, so finding good advise is hard. 

That being said, I believe we still would have approached 3CORE in the same way. We knew what we needed to get us started and we got it.
