After securing your seed round, the race is on to scale ARR (annual recurring revenue). ARR is arguably the most critical startup metric founders need to understand and get right — especially if you’re building in the cloud. Why? It’s the number that investors look at to gauge both growth potential and changes in subscription bases.
The margin of error for founders is slim and execution is critical when faced with a ticking clock, limited seed dollars and a challenging macroeconomic environment. This is why you don’t want to miss our session, “Racing the Clock to $1M In ARR: Best Practices for Learning Fast from Launch Partners” at TechCrunch Early Stage on April 25 in Boston.

We’ve invited Rudina Seseri, founder and managing partner at Glasswing Ventures, to break down ARR and delve into the best practices for rapidly iterating on the lessons learned from your launch partners (aka, your early customers).
She’ll help you understand how to ask your customers the right questions, get actionable answers, respond efficiently and avoid spinning your wheels at a critical juncture in your company’s growth. Interactive TC Early Stage sessions provide plenty of time to engage and ask questions. You’ll walk away with a deeper understanding of the topics and skills that are essential to startup success.
