Day 6 of /lounge and I'm excited to finally ask this to all my smart friends:

What is important in a startup that most people ignore? 

What do people focus on a lot, but actually isn't that important?

What is important in a startup that most people ignore? 

- working with people that want it as much as you do
- making money, if you make money you extend the number of at bats to find the 1000x

What do people focus on a lot, but actually isn't that important?

- raising money
- press releases
- going to conferences

don't take my casts seriously please (most of them at least)

yeah conferences definitely fun and really cool to meet people you talk to online IRL (like happening to sit next to you at farcon!)

in the context of work though I feel like conferences only useful if you have a dedicated purpose for being there
