Calling All Indian Entrepreneurs

One of my readers suggested that he would like to see more coverage of Indian entrepreneurs on this blog. Well, we’d be delighted to oblige. Here are the pitching instructions, if you have a story-worthy venture. (Please feel free to forward to your friends and fellow entrepreneurs)

(1) Deal Radar:

If your company is greater than $1 million in revenue, then we will profile you in The 1M/1M Deal Radar. Please email Candice Arnold with a completed questionnaire.

(2) Entrepreneur Journeys:

Besides DR, I also write Entrepreneur Journeys (EJ; companies with >$5 million in revenue only). To pitch EJ stories,email me directly with a good description of the story angle. EJ requires a one-hour interview by phone or in person and each interview is published as a 7-part series over a week.

I am interested in interviewing the entrepreneur behind the company who can and is willing to discuss at length the nuances of the strategy and process of company building spanning topics such as bootstrapping, financing, positioning, customer acquisition, channels, team building, etc. In terms of industry segments, I am interested in software/SaaS/cloud, e-commerce and Web 3.0, mobile and social apps, gaming, healthcare IT, online education, cleantech, and outsourcing. The Entrepreneur Journeys series has already produced four books. You can see examples of the series on my blog. We use the EJ interviews as case studies to teach other entrepreneurs how to navigate the entrepreneurial waters within 1M/1M.
