Our average portfolio company has a SAM of ~$60B-$70B, but smaller SAMs are OK too— but only if you have a strategy to achieve mass market penetration. SAM = # Potential Customers x Avg. Revenue Per Customer. ✅ Unique Approach: Show us how you do things differently, such as how (not what) you provide the solution, unique business model, unique channel strategy, unique value prop of the solution, etc. ✅ Fast Mass Market Adoption: Do you have a clear method to achieve mass market growth in a short period of time? We’re looking for companies with strategies that scale fast and large. ✅ Multiple Unfair & Sustainable Competitive Advantages: What you got? First to market...first mover advantage...no thanks. Fast follower...with enlightened approach...yes please! ✅ Magnitude of Improvement: Are you solving problems in a way that’s significantly better than the status quo? Quantify it: Zero to 1? or 10x-100x+ better, faster, cheaper, or all three! Whether you're pre-Product/pre-Revenue (nothing is too early for us) or already in Growth Mode (nothing has too much traction for us to consider investing), we’re here to help you scale your company 20x - 100x+ (fyi - That's also our target return). 💼 If this sounds like you, submit your pitch on our website and let's get started! We're gearing up for our Q4 startup meetings and can't wait to hear your story. 🌱💡
