Joe Baffone is the founder and CEO of Annexus Health, who provide tech enabled services to manage health and life science services. Joe talks to Ryan about his unique business model and why taking two years to identify their monetization strategy before product building was one of the best decisions they made. Joe also talks about the rest of his business journey including unique insights on networking and systematic ways to build your business.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Like many of us, people Joe loves were touched by cancer, he realised there was nothing that offered solutions to help patients manage their care. This inspired him to try and do something to help.
- Annexus was originally bootstrapped but recently got funding to help them scale and grow!
- Joe advises those looking to start a SaaS company, is to not take a step until you have a rock-solid and tested monetisation strategy.
- You need organisational structure and operational mindset to create scale.
- One of Annexus’ main methods of customer acquisition is building strong strategic aliences with large healthcare organsations, service provers etc. This is closely followed by their referral techniques.
- Operational excellence that gives Annexus the ability to ensure they are as productive as they can be as a company and as individals.
