“If you want to achieve success, all you need to do is find a way to model those who have already succeeded.”
Researching startups that are valued at over $1B
After-all, Rory and the entire VERB team are building a multi-billion dollar company
3 of the 4 highest categories are AI, E-commerce & direct-to-consumer and Internet software & services account for 1/3 of all companies on the list
Guess what category VERB is in?
A.) AI
B.) E-commerce & direct-to-consumer
C.) Internet software & services
D.) All of the above
Below are how many in each category. Those 3 amount to over $364B+ valuation.
Dig into each of them and take a look at their journey at getting to a $1B+ valuation
Maybe start at the bottom with Ziprecruiter and work your way up to companies like Wish and see how they got there.
Ziprecruiter - $219 million raised and valued at $1.5B about a year ago
What's the difference between them, indeed, Careerbuilder, Monster, Linkedin?
Isn't that landscape too crowded?
I guess those are not the concerns of the investors
Indeed BTW sold 7 years ago for an estimated $1B
I know Ziprecruiter bought at least one company. Did at least one major integration before their valuation soared
Didn't see Facebook do a PR though
Maybe they did and I missed it
Either way, it didn't stop them from getting to over $1B+ valuation
Imagine, one big integration and the valuation soared
They have about 3 dozen companies in their integrated marketplace
Word on the street is VERB has at least 17 now.
