The Use of Signals in New-Venture Financing: A Review and Research Agenda (2021, background): “…consistency, which refers to the simultaneous agreement of multiple signals from one sender (Gao, Darroch, Mather, & MacGregor, 2008); this is important because conflicting signals are suspected to constitute a significant barrier to communication effectiveness (e.g., Fischer & Reuber, 2007).”

Better Together? Signaling Interactions in New Venture Pursuit of Initial External Capital (2016, background): “One signaling action a startup can undertake that is both costly and difficult to imitate is to introduce a product on the market (Fischer & Reuber, 2007; Rindova et al., 2007; Verona, 1999).”
Trademarks and Venture Capital Valuation (2014, unknown): “, 2011; Karamanos, 2003; Sliwka, 2007), the expectations of the receiver, the ability of the receiver to interpret the signal (Fischer and Reuber, 2007; Ryan, Sacco, McFarland, and Kriska, 2000), and the costs for the sender to send the signal (Certo, Daily, and Dalton, 2001; Cohen and Dean, 2005).”
