Had a great meeting with an investor yesterday and he gave me a really great tip - wondering if any of you have done this or if you think you would. (He sold his business for 300 million btw... WHAT?!?) So before he even began building a prototype for his idea, he went to a large corporation and asked to meet with the merger/acquisition person. Then he chatted with that guy for a few hours asking him what they needed to build in order to get aquired. Specifically, what NOT TO DO. (What things to avoid in order to take them out of the running to be purchased.) Such a simple idea, but they got a ton of info and thought from the end. Id love to know your thoughts on this tactic and if you think youd try it.
