The questions tech startup founders always ask
Clarity, method, pace, impact: here is what you really need to understand before you get started.
Media training prepares you for speaking in any format where you will be in the spotlight: fundraising announcements in major business outlets, product launches in the tech press, industry conferences, or influential podcasts. The goal isn't to change who you are, but to make you clearer, more structured, and more credible without losing your authenticity as a founder. In the startup world, every interview is also a conversation with your future investors, hires, and clients. Preparation is not optional.
Yes. We build your priority messages together based on your goals: fundraising narratives, product positioning, employer branding for recruitment, or long-term industry vision. We support them with evidence, data, clear phrasing, and answers to sensitive questions. You will head into interviews with a solid, consistent, and polished message, regardless of the journalist's angle.
Yes. We work on your voice, pacing, use of silence, filler words, posture, gestures, and eye contact. For a founder, physical presence is a signal of credibility. Investors and journalists pick up on it within seconds. The goal is a calm, grounded, and professional presence that is consistent with the leader you are.
The sooner the better, but the key moments are: before a fundraising announcement (business media like Les Echos or La Tribune cover these systematically), before a product launch (tech press, web media), before speaking at a conference (VivaTech, Web Summit, industry panels), or before entering a new market. Waiting until you are already in the media to prepare is waiting too long.
Yes. Every format has its own rules: TV requires visual presence and conciseness; radio relies on voice, rhythm, and density of meaning; print media demands quotable soundbites; and podcasts value authenticity and storytelling. We simulate each format with you—covering typical questions, time constraints, and detailed feedback—so you feel comfortable in any context.
Yes, it’s a core part of the training. A journalist might ask you about your burn rate, your competitors, your failures, or your pivots. We incorporate these questions into our simulations so you have a clear, polished response rather than improvising under pressure. Training for tough questions is what separates a leader who "does okay" from one who inspires confidence.
Yes, and it’s the combination we recommend. Media training prepares your messaging and delivery, while public relations gets you into the right media at the right time. The two are more powerful together, especially before a fundraising round or a product launch: you’ll be interview-ready the moment the opportunity arises. This is exactly the model we implement at Linker.
