Who are a couple people you could reach out to? Why?
- There's only about 11 on LinkedIn which tells me it's a small company and their page isn't getting a ton of activity. Currently, a person by the name of Roeland Reyneir is the CTO so he would be the one to talk to. He speaks Dutch.
Finalize Your Plan: Who have you decided to reach out to? Why that person? How will you contact them? What do you want to talk to them about? How will you follow up? Execute your plan: Reach out to your contact THIS WEEK. If possible, reach out to more than one person OR find a meetup to attend also. What happened? What did you learn about the company? What other next steps should you take for pursuing this company? Be sure to update this in Huntr.
