© 2012 Apptivo Inc. All rights reserved. Never Tell a Lie to Investors “Price is what you pay. Value is what you get. ” – Warren Buffet In the current economic scenario, small businesses and startups would welcome any financial help they can get. Once they have tapped funds from their friends and family, they may turn to investors who are willing to invest in their business. However, one must keep in mind that investors don’t write blank checks. They will want a detailed business plan and also a way to exit from the business down the line with meaningful profits. You should be thoughtful in your approach towards potential investors because a scattershot approach will turn them off. A point worth mentioning is, never ever lie to a potential investor. Why you should not Lie to a Potential Investor Investors prefer to deal with realistic SMB owners – To get the funding, many entrepreneurs tend to lie and give an unrealistic projection. A shrewd investor would likely see throug

Project Managers Salaries SaaS project management may seem like it would be a simple job. After all, all you have to do is keep a project running, right? In reality, it is a very difficult job that requires you to plan, organize, work with a team, and take an idea from a scribble on a piece of paper to the final product. A project may be something as simple as coming up with a new company logo or it could even be managing how a city would react to a natural disaster. You need certification for SaaS project management and project managers are paid according to what they are worth. There is a possibility that you could find a job that does not require you to have certification as a SaaS project management professional. While you would still get a fairly nice salary, a certification can increase your salary by as much as $10,000 a year. Even in this rough econ
