Alec Barrett-Wilsdon – CEO
Startup one-liner:
Enabling small companies to build highly customized leads lists using 200+ attributes
Problem the startup solves:
Early-stage B2B companies struggle to find, quantify, and scale a customer persona that fits their product. SourceStack allows them to identify prospects by 200+ company data attributes, and download only as much data as they need. Because our pricing is usage-only (non-recurring), we can support small startups as they iterate through various ICPs over time, until they find true Product Market Fit.
Progress and current status:
SourceStack has been running for several years now. As of posting, we count 5 unicorns – plus many other fast-growing small startups – among our customers.
What is a crazy story about the startup?:
The first four months of the startup, we didn’t have proper servers, and the scraping was done solely by a laptop plugged in with a caffeinate script running 24/7.
What is a company the startup looks up to, and why?:
ImportGenius – similar company in a different market. Very well executed in poor-defensibility vertical.
The company in four years will be…
Continuing to serve all our customers’ company data needs.
