Together with Stripe and Highland Europe, 13books Capital gathered a few fintech founders and execs last week for a roundtable breakfast to discuss the challenges that come with enterprise sales. Here are some takeaways: • Get ready for marathons, not sprints: Sales cycles are stretching even more (think 9 months+). Leaders shared their journeys, emphasizing automation and "multithreading" complex decision-making. • Consensus buying is key, and it seems that MEDDIC frameworks with iteration as well as true teamwork are needed for success. • Pricing & compensation get creative: Usage-based pricing is hot, and incentives are adapting. Back-pay is in! • Partnerships, not just headcount: Resource deficit is real. It is critical to invest in partnerships to support your growth. Key takeaways: Relationships matter, adapt your incentives for complex sales, and capture what makes your team "good" to retain talent.

New Post: After taking credibility hit, Carta announces it is exiting the secondaries business: “We have decided to prioritize trust” - Roughly 72 hours after a prominent startup customer complained that Carta was misusing information with which it was entrusted — scaring many of Carta’s tens of thousands of other customers in the process — Carta is exiting the business that landed it in trouble with the customer. Carta co-founder and CEO Henry Ward posted on Medium tonight that: “Because we have the data, if we are trading secondaries, people will always worry that we are using the data, even if we are not. So we have decided to prioritize trust, and exit the secondary trading business.” It’s a dramatic turn of events for Carta, which originally focused on cap table management software but began over time to evolve into a “private stock market for companies” to take advantage of the network of companies and investors that already use its platform and into which it has insights. The big idea was to become the transfer agent, brokerage and clearinghouse for all private stock transactions in the world. While the move made Carta more valuable in the eyes of its venture backers — a company has to scale after all! — it put Carta on dangerous footing after a Finnish CEO Karri Saarinen posted on LinkedIn on Friday that Carta was using information about his company’s investor base to try to sell its shares to outside buyers without the company’s knowledge or consent. Wrote Saarinen, whose project management software company Linear is four years old and a Carta customer:  “As a founder it feels kind shitty that Carta, who I trust to manage our cap table, is now doing cold outreach to our angel investors about selling Linear shares to their non disclosed buyers.” Continued Saarinen, “They never contacted us (their customer) about starting an order book for Linear shares. The investor they reached out to is a family member whose investment we never published anywhere. We and they never opted in to any kind of secondary sales. Yet Carta Liquidity found their email and knew that they owned Linear shares.” While Ward apologized publicly to Saarinen, blaming a rogue employee who “violated our internal procedures and went out of bounds reaching out to customers they shouldn’t have,” Saarinen continued the discussion very publicly, saying he had identified numerous other founders whose investors had also been contacted by Carta representatives without their knowledge. In his post tonight, Ward downplayed the impacts of ending secondary trading on Carta, saying the revenue derived from the practice is minuscule compared with Carta’s other business offerings. According to Ward, Carta’s cap table business “is about $250M/year, fund administration is about $100M, private equity is about $20M, and the secondary trading business is about $3M.” Carta, he added has done a “decent job of building the cap table b
