The hardest part of being a founder is getting distribution. Yet it's the least understood/explored idea in start-ups. "The conventional thinking is that great products sell themselves; if you have great product, it will inevitably reach consumers. But nothing is further from the truth." CS183: Startup - Peter Thiel Class Notes Building distribution while developing an app/product/service is crucial for founders and entrepreneurs because it ensures their product is not only well-made but also well-received by the market. /distribution matters! https://paragraph.xyz/@jonathancolton.eth/build-distribution,-not-just-product?referrer=0xe19753f803790D5A524D1fD710D8a6D821a8Bb55

Ok fire is out. read it. What really resonated with me as both a consumer and creator is #5 bullet A. Also im finding 7 to be more true by the day.

I appreciate the read, I like those two as well. I like knowing I'm creating value people want/need to pay for. Something they urgently need is best. But like #7 says, it's not predictable or linear getting distribution and founders often avoid it. There's a massive opportunity cost of avoiding distribution before product launch. Now you know why the word distribution is often spoken.

Dont get me wrong - its the lifeblood of new platforms/communities. I just thought it was funny the first few times I heard you speak on tavern you spoke about it so often, you were the "distribution guy" in my head at first. not a bad nickname tbh. 69 $DEGEN
