He talked about the roles of anchor clients and the challenges of coming up with a common road map that fulfills both the client and the startup.

He also focused on avoiding too much delay in GTM due to excessive time spent perfecting the product.

He talked about the various pricing models and the role of multiple modules in driving revenues.

He laid special emphasis on sales as a critical skill required by founders for raising investment, hiring, and gaining clients.

He also talked about the role of advisors and mentors and how to maximize their potential to create value for your startup.
