MSDUK Mentor Was a Gamechanger for Zerocode Cloud



Background

At ZeroCode Cloud, we offer affordable and fully supported cloud solutions for businesses straight out of the box. Technology is pervasive, and so is progressive intent. Businesses and individuals that care about efficiency build websites, apps, and web services on the ZeroCode Cloud. ZeroCode Cloud allows businesses to ‘drag and drop’ design their own software systems without knowing how to write code—saving them time, resources, and money.



Accelerator

As a start-up, there are always barriers to launching. However, we always had a strong vision of what we wanted to deliver—an intelligent software solution for businesses without the headache of hiring software developers. We established in 2020, and aside from the pandemic, one of our other challenges was that hosting on the cloud can be expensive and cost-prohibitive for a start-up pre-launch. I heard about the MSDUK Accelerator Programme through a connection and contacted them to see if they could help. As a result, we signed up for their accelerator campaign to give us a bit of momentum.



Game-Changing Mentor Call

We joined MSDUK’s Accelerator campaign to help us overcome some challenges we were having as a business. One of the many Accelerator benefits is corporate mentoring delivered by senior professionals from Unilever, Dow, WPP, Sony, JCDecaux, BT, Aramark, Impact X Capital, and AB InBev. Our mentor at MSDUK was brilliant and, within one phone call, helped us break through a significant barrier for our business and helped us connect with Amazon. It was a game-changing moment for our business and something we had struggled to overcome for several months. Becoming an MSDUK member has delivered on multiple levels, very rewarding, and in terms of value to our business, it has delivered hundreds of thousands of pounds.



Accelerate to Launch

Through that one conversation with our mentor, we are now on our way to launch. Another way in which MSDUK has helped us is by widening our network of contacts. We now have more networking partners and people around us who share our vision and values, like our suppliers and customers. MSDUK has supported us in our journey to take ZeroCode Cloud to the next level. Our MSDUK mentor via Impact X Capital opened doors to Amazon and other providers across the industry, and our vision is fast becoming a reality. Furthermore, we have a steadily growing healthy pipeline of over 500 clients waiting to join ZeroCode Cloud when we launch later this year. If you’re considering signing up for the MSDUK Accelerator Programme, you’ll benefit from practical workshops covering Customer Discovery and validation, Product Mindset, Growth Marketing and Communication and sales.


I would say without a doubt, as a business signing up for the MSDUK Accelerator programme, you’ll connect with founders, experts, and corporate networks and receive invaluable 1-2-1 business surgeries with experts in residence.


Undoubtedly, joining the MSDUK accelerator programme has been a key stepping-stone for our business. So why not investigate and see how MSDUK could help your business, as it has been great for us.

“Without MSDUK it would probably be a lot harder in terms of business-to-business sales functions because MSDUK gave us access to get our first client, Enterprise Rent-a-Car and from there we were able to snowball.”
