2006 Blogging Conference Writing 
Both Sides of the Table
OCTOBER 19, 2009
On December 2nd, 2006 I wrote the blog post published later in this post when I was CEO of startup Koral about my experiences in pitching VCs. After my company was acquired by Salesforce.com I was asked to stop blogging and they took over my blog as an asset in the sale of the company. My blog was wiped out.

I recently wrote a post about how to get access to people at conferences and how to connect with people on social networks. When I sent out 300 invites in early 2006 people thought I was crazy. The power to me was that I had already been blogging about my personal life and my children as well as separately about my startup.

It got me thinking, which for me is always the sign of a good blog post. Journalists don’t know enough about your company before the show, don’t have time for proper research, and you will be competing for their time afterward with 49+ other companies that want them to write about you. - I think Robert’s right.

Tonight I was reading a good blog post ( here ) from Sean Powers with Alistair Croll on preparing yourself for the TC50 “bump” – the rise in traffic that a company gets from presenting at TechCrunch 50. They got us invited to the Fortune CEO conference in Paris held at Versailles. Not so much.). Goldman Sachs was an investor.

I’ve been meaning to write this post since September of last year when Brad Feld first wrote about the The Founders Visa Movement. I commented briefly on his blog and made a mental note to write a blog post. At the time he granted me permission to write about his story. Felipe grew up in Brazil.

TechCrunch ran my article yesterday as a guest post but I wanted to have a copy here for anybody who missed it and for future readers of this blog. Immediately following the closing of the round I flew out to a big real estate conference in France to meet with prospective customers. At least not externally.
