Cons
The biggest challenge we face is market awareness and buyer education. Not too many know of MindTouch and if you haven't seen what we do it does require a short product tour or a little explanation. This is because we're addressing a green field market. I often refer to what we do as something similar to Cirque du Soleil. Imagine if someone told you that you were going to a circus. However, this circus has NO animals. Includes ballet dancers. But with rock music. You can't buy a hot dog or popcorn. Oh, and it's in a theater and not a tent. This might be a little confusing at first. Now go watch a Cirque show. Or, ask to get a product tour of MindTouch.
