How does a VC actually consider investments?

Information about Alistair
Alistair has spent the bulk of his career in the IT and software industry and has been involved in starting, scaling and exiting software companies, as well as having gained experience from less successful businesses of some of the challenges faced by early stage businesses and how to deal with them.

SaaS Pricing Strategy with Martin from Cobloom
Martin talks to Gelb about how to go about thinking of how to price your SaaS product.
Article about Pricing Options: https://www.cobloom.com/blog/saas-pricing-models
Martin is an experienced business consultant, and learned his trade delivering off the shelf ERP software to the enterprise, including Diageo, Ingersoll-Rand and Rolls-Royce. With a passion for delivering value, and having seen huge business benefits from software led process improvements, co-founding Cobloom with Will was a natural fit.
He understands how healthy, profitable software businesses should be run, and the impact a great consultant can have. At Cobloom, Martin uses this experience to diagnose growth problems. He works closely with prospective partners to help them identify which approaches are the best fit - for both the business, and their customers.
When away from work, Martin is a keen tennis player, and an avid Wolverhampton Wanderers fan.
