What is the PRISM Process™?
ScaleUp Executives provides its clients a unique way of looking at their business model and customer value proposition through a process we call ScaleUp PRISM (Planning, Revenue, Infrastructure, Sales/Marketing and Management).
The ScaleUp PRISM process helps businesses build out a clear path to success. In addition to minimizing risk, this process builds a library of information that becomes the foundation of your go-to-market strategy. You will be able to construct your business plan, product collateral, digital marketing ads, Website, sales scripts and more from the results.
From your investor pitch deck to your sales pitch this process allows you to focus your value proposition on the benefit to targeted customer versus talking about your features and functions, then waiting and hoping someone understands the benefits.

If you are starting up a company, it is invaluable to go through this process to validate the market opportunity, understand the competitive landscape and the ecosystem you will need to be successful. As important, you will be able to determine if you have a viable business before you spend considerable time and money.
