About this Event
Most vendors who try to sell into the nonprofit world fail, not because their product isn't good, but because they never took the time to understand how nonprofits actually work. The budgets are different. The decision-making is different. The rules are different and if you get it wrong, you won't get a second chance.
Elias spent 20 years figuring all of that out and built a software company so effective he backed every engagement with a 10–12% profitability guarantee. In two decades, not a single client ever needed to collect. Then he sold his company for millions.
Join us for a fireside chat as Elias sits down with Doug Kim, founder of the Kim, Lahey & Killough Law Firm who was there from the earliest days of the company through the closing of the sale, to unpack the full story.
What you'll walk away with
- Why the $3.7 trillion nonprofit sector is wide open for vendors who get it right
- What it takes to build something guarantee-worthy
- How to sell into a fragmented, budget-constrained market and still win
- What a successful exit looks like and what comes after
This is for you if...
- You run a service business, agency, or consultancy and want to grow
- You're building something and want to hear from someone who took it all the way to exit
- You're curious about the nonprofit sector as an untapped market
- You're a nonprofit leader who wants to better evaluate outside vendors
