Dear SaaStr: Does Having a Board of Advisors Increase Your Chances of Getting Funding? No. Or maybe — only barely, a tiny bit. It does show you are hustling, if the advisors are truly great. If you get Eric Yuan or Marc Benioff to be an active advisor — well, then, you get some more attention. But that’s about it. They aren’t on the management team, they aren’t selling or building product or running a growth playbook.

In There’s No Such Thing as Series A Metrics , Charles Hudson explains that there is no magic milestone to raise a Series A. In this environment, I agree. The $1m ARR figure used to hold in 2018 & early 2019. But the data shows how much the market differs from a few years ago. Series A round size standard deviation has grown by between 4-5x in 4 years.

I held off for many years on writing a post on Board Meetings. Why? Because every investor in the world writes lengthy posts on How to Have a Great Board Meeting. How to Have a Great Pre-Board Meeting. How to Have a Great Board Meeting Week. Etc. etc. etc. etc. VCs, once they have been doing it a while, basically become professional Board Members, and they write a lot about that.

When did you last pay attention to a generic brand video that wasn’t for research purposes? If you’re anything like me, there are so many things fighting for your attention online that you have to be highly selective about what you give precious minutes, and those videos usually don’t make the cut.

In the past two months, high-flying software companies have seen 40-112% increases in valuation. I wondered if the public markets have begun to change the way they value these businesses.

My content and keyword research was limited to what I saw on search engine results pages (SERPs) for a long time, especially at the beginning of my content writing journey. For instance, I would look at the content ranking for a specific keyword and try to emulate it in my content. But, as I progressed, I realized a pattern. In addition to being similar to existing top pages, the content needed more expertise and unique perspectives.
