Who is your first US Customer? Founder Night w/ Peter Shin (YC W20)๐ฅ
โFrom B2C Traction to Your First B2B Customer
โFor founders turning product traction into B2B sales.
โYou launched a product.
Users are coming in.
Your metrics are starting to move.
โBut now youโre asking a different question:
โCan this traction turn into B2B revenue?
Who should be your first B2B customer?
Who is the actual buyer inside the company?
What use case should you sell?
How do you go from users โ meetings โ PoCs โ revenue?
And when should you add a sales-led motion to PLG?
โThis is not a general startup networking event.
โItโs a small, founder-focused session for startups that have early product traction and are now figuring out how to sell B2B.
โ๐ฏ Who This Is For
โThis event is for founders who:
โHave already launched an MVP or product
โAre seeing early users, engagement, or product traction
โStarted with B2C, self-serve, or PLG
โBelieve B2B could become their next growth engine
โAre figuring out their B2B ICP, buyer, use case, pricing, or sales motion
โWant to land their first B2B customer or enterprise PoC
โIf users are coming in, but youโre still asking โWho will actually pay us?โ โ this room is for you.

โ๐ How to Land Your First B2B Customer
โPeter Shin โ YC W20 Founder & CEO of Outsome
โGetting users and selling to a company are two very different things.
โOnce you move into B2B, you need to answer:
โWhich companies should we target?
Who inside the company actually buys?
What problem are they willing to pay to solve?
โPeter will share practical lessons on:
โTurning product traction into a B2B ICP
โFinding the right company, buyer, and use case
โMoving from PLG to a sales-led motion
โApproaching early B2B customer discovery and sales
โTurning conversations into PoCs and revenue
โCommon mistakes founders make when starting B2B sales
โThe goal is not to leave with more theory.
Itโs to know what you should test next.
โ๐ Founder Case Study
โFrom PLG to Enterprise Sales
โJaehyuk Heo โ Founder & CEO of ManyFast
โManyFast started with a product-led growth thesis.
โAs the company grew, the team realized that PLG alone wasnโt enough to drive the next stage of growth.
โThat led them to rethink their ICP, GTM strategy, and sales motionโand start selling directly to enterprise customers.
โJaehyuk will share:
โWhy ManyFast initially focused on PLG
โWhat made the team rethink its growth strategy
โHow its ICP and GTM evolved
โWhat changed when the team started enterprise sales
โLessons from moving toward a PLG + SLG model
โA real founder story about what happens when product traction needs to become revenue.
โ๐ฅ Live B2B GTM Q&A
โBring your actual business.
โSelected founders will discuss their B2B GTM challenges directly with Peter.
โWho is your ICP?
Who is the buyer?
Why would they pay?
How many customers have you talked to?
What should you test next?
โNo hypothetical case studies.
โWeโll talk about the companies in the room.
โ๐บ๐ธ Founder-to-Founder Connections
โMeet other founders going through the same transitionโfrom building a product people use to building a business companies pay for.
โThe goal isnโt to collect business cards.
โLeave with a clearer B2B hypothesis, useful connections, and one concrete next step.
