Managing a software firm is special and different from managing a company that is concerned with unit cost. But the principles are quickly explained: Create a product that makes customers more successful, talk about it and implement the solution at the customer. However, growing these capabilities as the company grows is not trivial. Not because entrepreneurs don’t know what levers exist, but because of creating the structures and finding the best people for pulling these levers. This is where BID Equity can help: We know where to look first and also bring the capabilities and resources to execute.
