+In early stage, product scale & a path to profitability is not mutually exclusive. The sweet spot: a scale-ready product and team w/year 1 startup flexibility.

Good businesses run profitably. You can’t just rely on fundraising to fund your operations. When I started, I was criticized for being frugal. But being careful with spending means your next investment will always be the most important one you can make.

7% making it from seed to C could be a lot better if less startups didn’t microwave their product to market B/c that half ready product + small team & forced/wrong customers = churn, no ($) follows & a stuck product Get time & build better—or raise a big seed (nice stat Arif)

@Julian @hnshah The base premise of telling a story (& taking from a @justinkan quora post/tweet): -The world is a certain way -Something changes -The world is different now Such a simple & amazing way to think of any story you want to share, or narrative to create.

The best tip I ever got on narratives was from @spakhm that every major story in human history follows this same arc: - The world is a certain way - Something changes - The world is now different May seem obvious but that’s what makes it effective - and memorable.

@HarryStebbings Very few good things that come to you in this world don’t require some kind of persistence like 71 meetings and 70 no’s. Key is to make sure through those no’s you’re still progressing, and not just doing the same thing to the same type of people or groups over and over.

@vhmth Tech is growing in every industry, from machinery to apparel — to anything. So it’s just unrealistic for one area (bay area) to build most tech for all industries forever; esp as these other industries tech niches are only 🚀 📈 IMO no one area will overtake the Bay Area though.

@nikitabier @elonmusk It’s a good idea, especially for other social platforms. The bigger issue (IMO) is 99% of Twitter users do not see consistent engagement. Where your solution is definitely for that 1% side — but likely not moving the needle a ton to help scale it more.

If you plan to sell your SaaS offering to SMEs & enterprises as a startup, define enterprise product requirements to compliment the longer buying process. The less friction created there (without compromising value) may become some of your company’s secrets to success/traction.

@iamgingertrash @a16z Swallow the pride and cut the better deal with those that said no prior to you. If you're back in the discussion as it is, you likely have some extra leverage b/c of the no — use it to help you get that one additional thing at the end. Ego < better deal Ego < anything

@jasonlk +1 Have done it twice this way (SMB) getting 2 different startups their first deals / ARR. Will say though, if you have the time early-early, and can build to SME / Enterprises (along w/SMBs) too, it’s really interesting how flexible your offering can be as a young company.

@DavidSacks Default alive is just a sneaky way of saying scale without capital. To reach economies of scale it will require capital but if you’re doing the default alive part right — it’s just plug and play to large scale when that time comes.

@speirin @agazdecki There is no one answer to what's best in ownership % to exit strategy. Kind of why it's great (right?). To your point Henry it's all about leadership transparency to employees when joining; transparency meaning some level of company exit goals depending on how early they are.
