I need someone great at conversions to tear a website apart for me. Any takers?
I hear a lot of people complaining about the lack of venture funding currently available. From being both a founder and a vc, I believe there isn't a lack of capital but rather a scarcity of excellent founders for vc's to allocate to.
In B2B SAAS when you can close 5+ sales without your CEO being involved you know you have product market fit.
Technology moats are almost non-existent now. Data moats have the same fate coming. Defensibility is shifting, how are you adapting?
If you could invest in a friend and get 10% of their income for life, who would you pick? Tag them here.
You hear about moats in business but not in people. What's your personal moat? What are you significantly better at than others that is hard to disrupt?
Do you have friends where you mostly reminisce on the past and rarely talk about the future? If you met them today would you be friends with them?
Your youth can be your biggest advantage, everyone wants to help you because nobody sees you as a threat yet. This can be a small window, don't miss it.
fudgel: to pretend to do work while actually doing nothing and being totally unproductive.
🎙 Join our CEO @MaelleGavet as she hosts @YPO Presents Ask the Experts: The Path to Exit & Thriving Beyond on Aug. 23 @ 3pm ET. Maëlle will dive into the highs & lows of selling a business alongside Michelle Cordeiro Grant of GORGIE & @NoahBerkson of Austin Capital.
I think a lot of the smartest people I know would be incredible founders but are too logical to just drop everything and go for it.
It’s in moments of idleness and boredom that many great ideas come.
Interesting article about mastering the art of requests. My five key takeaways: Be clear about what you want. Who do you want it from? When do you want it by? What are the conditions of satisfaction? Why is it necessary? hbr.org/2023/08/master…
Had the pleasure to speak @Stanford to the start up investing class on how to Network into venture capital. It’s crazy that networking isn’t taught in school yet it will fundamentally change the trajectory of your life. It certainly changed mine.
Ever notice that the most impactful entrepreneurs are often driven by their own frustrations? Necessity is the catalyst of invention.
Just a reminder: What you do is less important than how you do it
Your strategy is only as strong as your ability to adapt
Prioritize your people and the product - profits will follow.

You see cool crypto use case. I see Stripe not having to pay credit card companies a transaction fee. The margin expansion must be... enormous.
Crypto is back. @stripe will start supporting global stablecoin payments this summer. Transactions instantly settle on-chain and automatically convert to fiat. Join the waitlist stripe.com/use-cases/cryp… and watch the demo (h/t @solana) from Sessions.
This is just awesome. If I built an awesome business, became a billionaire and was forced out of my own company by dumb activist investors (stock is down 16% since they forced him out a few months ago) I too would buy The Onion.
