Business Case: CEO, 24, Bought The First Domain Name At The Age Of 8.
A few years ago, Lerer Ventures, a venture capital organization from New York, held a new a href= "//www.sjfzxm.com/news/index_c.asp" enterprise /a gathering. < p > a few years ago,
At noon that day, the manager of the agency, Kenneth Lerer, was preparing for lunch. Suddenly, a voice came from behind: "Mr. Lerer, I want to talk to you.
Even if I can't get any investment, I want to talk to you. "
Lerer said, "this is enough to get investment for them."
< /p >
< p > this voice comes from Poptip's CEO Kelsey Falter, this year she is only 24 years old.
Two years ago, the company entered into cooperation with well-known organizations and enterprises such as CNN, NFL, Spotify and Budweiser.
Poptip's product is to provide customers with back-end voting technology.
< /p >
< p > users can use their products to vote on social networks such as Twitter, and users can see the results of real-time voting.
< /p >
< p > nowadays, there are 9 Falter teams. Their competitors include Radian6, Nielsen, BuzzMetrics and Brandwatch.
< /p >
< p > Falter indicates that the Internet today is quite different from the Internet in 90s.
In the past, the Internet seemed to be a huge information pool for users, but now the Internet has more information, but the feeling to users is that the Internet is getting smaller. People use the most social media every day to share information with people around them.
And when people begin to share information, the scale of the Internet has become infinitely large.
< /p >
One of the tasks of "P > Falter" is to attract Lerer such as a href= "//www.sjfzxm.com/news/index_s.asp" > investment < /a >.
So far, they have invested $2 million 400 thousand.
< /p >
< p > Lerer indicates that the success of Poptip is closely related to Falter: "in investment circles, the most we do is shake hands with people, look at each other's eyes, and judge the characteristics of the other side."
In Lerer's view, Falter made a good impression on him when he first met with him. Lerer said, "she is a superstar."
< /p >
< p > although young, Falter has a wealth of entrepreneurial experience.
When she was only 8 years old, she bought the first domain name in her life.
In her youth, she got her first job, which is to create MySpace home page for Tribune Co..
At the Lerer Ventures gathering, she was also a student at Notre Dame University.
< /p >
< p > we asked Falter what she thought of stopping Lerer talking with him that day. Her response was: I have nothing to lose anyway.
< /p >
"P," she said, "during that time, I continued to travel between Notre Dame and New York.
I know no one in a href= "//www.sjfzxm.com/news/index_p.asp" > New York < /a >, nor do I have any funds.
Even the flight ticket to New York was paid by myself. No one paid me a ticket.
At that time, I needed to seize the opportunity by myself. Anyway, I had nothing to lose. "
