Strategic Communications Advisory For Visionary Founders
Welcome to another episode of Category Visionaries — the show that explores GTM stories from tech’s most innovative B2B founders. In today’s episode, we’re speaking with Shane Bigelow, CEO of Champ Titles, a digital title management platform that’s raised over $31 million in funding. Champ Titles is revolutionizing the way vehicle titles are managed, streamlining processes for governments, dealers, insurance carriers, and fleet operators.
For B2B tech founders, navigating complex regulatory environments or outdated industry practices presents a unique opportunity. Shane's approach to transforming vehicle titling through Champ Titles underscores the potential for tech solutions to streamline bureaucratic processes, making this a critical consideration for startups in regulated sectors.
The collaboration between Champ Titles and state governments demonstrates the power of strategic partnerships in overcoming market barriers and scaling solutions. Founders should identify and pursue partnerships that can accelerate the adoption of their innovations, especially in industries with high entry thresholds.
Champ Titles' focus on improving the constituent experience highlights the importance of user-centric design, even in B2G (business-to-government) solutions. For founders developing platforms that serve public sector stakeholders, simplifying processes and enhancing user experience can be a significant differentiator.
Implementing a "land and expand" strategy, as Shane describes, allows for gradual introduction of complex solutions, facilitating user adoption and operational integration. Startups should consider phased rollouts to manage risk and build momentum.
Shane's vision for Champ Titles extends beyond immediate business success to redefining digital asset management globally. Founders should articulate a long-term vision that not only addresses current market needs but also sets the stage for future industry transformation.
