Founders

My entire learning from running a startup to the ground last year can be distilled into-

Hire people that do one of two things-
1. They build 
2. They sell

Criticial- Sell before you build

Having been on the build first side, I know what I’m doing next. Haha!

Building and selling are the two activities that create value. It’s not chicken & egg, it’s alternating, pick first what works for you. But follow build cycle with sell, and vice versa. Feedback loops critical. 

All other activities are operations that help building or selling become smoother. h/t: @sinisterlight

Love it! Selling first solves for so much - neater working capital management, supply chain efficiency- better inventory management etc!

Reminds me of the Zappos example. 

When they first started they had no inventory of shoes. They would post images and then as people purchased, they would then go out and buy those shoes and ship to the customer.

Yeah, #1 thing I'd do differently next time is have someone selling from the moment we started.

First-class! Follow me for friendship reflections.
