By definition, startups are inherently resource-constrained. Given such limits, it is critical that founders focus on their core strengths, while leveraging the talents of others.

We work with consultants and partners across several lines of business. Services contracted through affiliates include:

» Marketing, including PR, communications, branding, direct mail, advertising, promotions, interactive
   media and copywriting. Kick-Start Marketing is one of our favorites.

» Legal, including patent searches and filing, trademarks, service marks, copyright work, LLC, LLP, and
   incorporation services, non-disclosure, incentive, and employee contract creation, and legal due
  diligence work. We have contacts at major Silicon Valley law firms including Wilson Sonsini, DLA Piper,
  and Greenburg Traurig, among others.

» Accounting, including business and stock option valuation services, tax advice, and implementation of
   accounting systems. We have relationships with several major firms.

» Technical: software and technology systems consulting, including Web design. For advanced
   technology due diligence and IP planning services, we partner with Tiger Venture Analysis.

In addition, we frequently team with other strategic partners for venture capital advisory services.

We offer clients significant value by facilitating relationships with trusted marketing, legal, tax, and IT professional affiliates. In addition, if desired, we will manage the relationship with third-party service providers, making for a seamless, single point of contact-- allowing you to concentrate on running your business.
