ATV Workshop: Founder Led Sales

How to Win Your First Customers and Build a Foundation for Scale

Most founders don't fail because they can't build a product—they fail because they never learn how to sell it.
In this interactive 60-90 minute workshop, Margaret Weniger draws on her experience building and leading high-performing sales organizations and coaching hundreds of startup founders to demystify sales.

Founders will:

• Learn why sales is one of the most important responsibilities of an early-stage CEO
• Uncover the four most common mistakes founders make when trying to acquire customers,
• Walk away with practical habits and frameworks they can implement immediately.

2 hr parking is included in your ticket fee.
