Digital solutions can serve as that ‘Hail Mary’ pass to generate revenue & engage all of your stakeholders but only to the extent that your #association or #tradeshow has a #strategy to command and support that solution. Here's how to start.

#socialcommerce sales are expected to grow 36% this year. #associations and #eventprofs risk losing this revenue to external sites. How are you monetizing these transactions?
Does your #marketplace work? I'm hosting a public demo of @CampfireSocial1 & discussion on #socialcommerce platforms on Thursday, October 14th at 2pm ET. See you at our campfire!

I’m speaking on a panel on behalf of female #entrepreneurs. What opportunities do you think exist within the #investor community to support female founders along their journey? What gaps have you noticed?
#FemaleFounders #startups #womenintech
#tradeshows & #associations should be tapping into macro trends to better understand how to serve their members, show attendees, and exhibiting partners.
See my latest article on how to leverage your staff to do so.

There are only 2 outcomes after raising capital -

Two people I know ask the best questions and source answers :
• Lolita (@lolitataub)
You’ll learn a ton about founding a startup if you follow her “Asking for a founder” series.
• Aditya (@BehereBaba)
Learn market behaviour through his “what did the company do” tweets.
Entrepreneurship should start with addressing problems in your market that affect people or process; not with assessing problems that are inherent with your competitors.
