Reaching out to companies for an interview showed how busy an entrepreneur’s life could be. Unfortunately I was not able to connect with the founder and CEO of Quizlet Andrew Sutherland , my main competitor for an interview even though I believed I got his personal email address: [email protected]. After following up every 2 business days for a week I decided to go with Khan Academy. I emailed Saalman Khan through an email address he provided on many talks: skhan@khanacademy.org and [email protected] but with no luck. I got no answers from him but customer service got back to me. They weren’t much help. On to Chegg where I contacted Dan Rosensweig though email address [email protected]. I also called the number 1 408-855-5600 hope to talk to any body who could help with my project but the number is disconnected or no longer in service.
I realize I will have to look for more accessible people I could talk to, a closer competitor to have at least an insight in that field
Your new idea might be better!
LOL, you’re not the only one Elina. Mine literally flaked on me and didn’t even give me a heads up, I was pretty upset about it to be honest.
Check out producthunt.com and put some keywords in their to find more competitors. You might be surprised what you learn, I definitely was.
Hi Elina,
I also have yet to hear back from my experts but I think I was able to extract a lot of information from my secondary research and from previous posts it looks like you and Karin have been gaining momemtum from your newer idea. I’m curious as to why some have heard back and we haven’t, I’m open to chatting on what we may be doing differently.
