Okay, I just got investment from the largest and most reputable VC in my country.

As part of the deal, I will have access to around 1000 large companies. Basically VC can just call these companies and have them try/buy my product. So this really is a golden ticket. The VC money I am getting is also a pretty size-able amount.

This is a pre-seed round, my product is still at ideation phase. What I am looking to develop is basically airtable.com competitor, but much easier to use, more geared toward small/medium enterprises and will have more country specific integrations. Basically I have unlimited access to distribution and sales should come easy, given the respect VC has in my country.

Given that I will have immediate access to about 1000 large b2b customers, is airtable like competitor the best course of action? Or is there a better idea I can develop into an MVP? My main goal is to develop the MVP and get to profitability as fast as possible.

    Can you chat with the network you’re describing to understand what their goals are and what problems prevent them for attaining those goals?

    A few consultants I’ve been chatting with propose their services to businesses and then create a product to scale the solution (the problem has been validated and the solution created while fulfilling). That might be something to explore for you.

    Lol, is this a joke? What do you mean by: Is there a better idea I can develop into an MVP?

    How did you raise money in the first place if you’re still asking that?

    This guy is just trying to get some info on some idea that he has, and the entire post is a made up story in order to achieve that.

    Sorry folks I am not here to brag. Just trying to get ideas to best take advantage of a large b2b customer base. I am thinking airtable competitor since the product was already validated in the states. Unless there’s something bigger I can do.

    An Airtable alternative with a lower learning curve would be a welcome change.
