Our Services to Quantum Tech Startups
Branding
As you move from the lab into the market, from research partnerships to commercial customers, quantum alone is not enough to sell anymore. You need a story! What do you stand for? What identifies you? What are you trying to truly do? We will help you cristalyze your message and create the content and assets to get it out there.
Digital Marketing
This is your face in the market starting with your website but more broadly how you present yourself online – consistent and up to date profiles on the relevant platforms (Crunchbase, Angellist, etc), style guidelines for a consistent look and feel, and the necessary “mechanics” (SEO, advertising, referrals, etc) to “be seen” in the digital world.
Social Media
Yes, even in quantum your buyers, partners and investors are on social media. You need to own your brand and message there, or others will. And you need to be authentic, consistent and reliable. Do this across 2 – 5 different channels and it is a whole project in itself.
PR
For those Quantum Tech startups that are starting to move into a scaling stage PR is an indispensable part of your success equation. And issuing press releases whenever you have something to announce is not PR, it’s a waste of time. Targeted, ongoing relationships with the right journalists and a story written to meet their needs will get you the coverage that you need.
Sales & biz dev
You’ve hired a consultant to help with sales? Or some enterprise expert? Sales is possibly the most researched “business science” out there and to be effective in it requires more than haphazard HR efforts or a “big wig” hire. Understanding your ideal sales approach for your target audience, identifying the appropriate channels to market and scaling the right mix of SDR, sales rep and account exec is key to success.
Liaison
In Quantum Tech industrial and government relationships are key to success. This is a service that we are exceptionally strong at in the DACH region (Germany, Austria, Switzerland) with close relationships to the industrial conglomerates, the broad SME base as well as regional and federal governments. We know how holds the purse strings when it comes to specific Quantum budgets.
Lean Startup
Ready to focus fully on your go to market? We can help you implement a Lean Startup approach, which is an iterative way of learning that minimizes the costs and time, to increase your odds of success. If done right this approach is the closest thing out there to a blueprint for startup success if you are willing to commit wholeheartedly.
Fundraising
Like sales, fundraising is an ongoing relationship effort to identify your best target audience of potential investors, understand the story that they want to hear and the KPIs they like to see. We know how to put that together but it means you have to start before you actually need to raise – there is no good money available in a crunch.
