I absolutely agree with you Eitan. Thank you for this inlighting article. Another good book for you when you think about marketing is “the thank you economy”/ Gary Vaynerchuk.
I practice this book right now.
Good luck.

Comment on Format for pair-up night? by alainrevah

If people define their interest by domain expertise I suggest arranging the schedule that way. Either startups by domain as in payment, ecommerce, enterprise software, security, mobile etc or by skills sought: technical, business/management, marketing etc.

This way people only listen to pitches they want to listen to and PairUp with people who are seeking their skillset. Is it the case that most business/management founders are seeking technical founders and vice versa?
If so you could have another format whereby business people pitch their idea to technical people in the hope they’d be interested in building it. Just my 2 cents of a Euro

@Yuval: say Mark Zuckerberg comes to PairUp night and his schedule (column + rows) is full. If he wants to meet you, what does the algorithm recommends then?

In terms of startups, do people define themselves by their domain expertise first? So it would be useful for people to know ahead of time if the pitch is about payments, ecommerce, enterprise software, etc. Now this assumes the founders are experienced naturally… This way seekers are informed of the domain ahead of the meet, can look up participants and perhaps even request meeting slots the day before?

@yuval: so if Mark Zuckerberg shows up at the PairUp looking for a co-founder and his schedule (column + rows) are full, then what does the algorithm say?

This is a great post and as a fellow entrepreneur I’ve personally experienced how important it is to give absolutely 100% of your time and talent. If you don’t (or can’t) you’re only cheating yourself and the chance you had to make your start-up a success. Very helpful ideas here!
