"Momentum and Urgency" by Travis Kalanick
Travis Kalanick on the importance of momentum & urgency when raising your seed round: "Investors are fickle creatures, they are motivated by fear and greed, and without it they will take their time and hem and haw at every turn. They will turn a 3 week process into a 6 month…

Just started using @perchdotapp the first reading app for the Internet—loving the streamlined content and fresh topics! Excited to see how it changes the way I consume and organize information. #Productivity #AI #ReadingApps
Just downloaded @perchdotapp. An app that turns your newsletters into an audible experience. I’ve been sucked into so many podcasts, so this will be a nice switch up.
