This week’s Pathfinder pod features Brian D’Erario, the man who keeps the lights on at Payload as the Director of Client Partnerships. Brian’s role is to bring in all the revenue that makes everything at Payload possible (no pressure, Brian!). With experience working with over 97 partners, Brian has been instrumental in shaping Payload's approach to brand awareness and lead generation.
Brian shares his journey from selling B2B hardware and software to government contractors, to his time at Morning Brew, and finally joining Payload to drive partnerships in the space sector.

- The marketing strategies that space companies often overlook
- The importance of brand awareness even during the R&D phase
- How startups can compete with the primes

- Effective conference strategies for maximizing impact
And much more…
