I never would've dreamed of having my company TripKit acquired unless I found the right buyer.

Well, it turns out @microacquire makes that possible. #microacquired

Branding needs to be more human. Stories are the amplifier of every campaign.

“TikToks go viral on Twitter.
Tweets go viral on Instagram.
Instagrams go viral on Facebook.

You don’t need custom content for every platform. You just need to understand your audience.”

The best part about working on startups is how intellectually stimulating it is.

Solve interesting challenges, meet cool people, learn something every day.

What more can you ask for?

[jared @Steele_Jared]

@GraceLMcBride Had this exact realization about a month ago. Training my mint to now 1) picking the right ones & 2) being able to move quickly to those.

anyone else feel like entrepreneurship is just a game of chutes and ladders?

[Grace Van Hollebeke @GraceLMcBride]

My favorite part of early flights are answering emails before everyone’s up. Just me?

I learned that trying to solve the same hard creative task for several days in a row drains creativity. Have to switch to other tasks, but too many context switches drain the energy... How do you find your balance?

[Grace Van Hollebeke @GraceLMcBride]

Ever just sit at a fire for 5 hours vibing with people and bouncing ideas off of one another? Just me?

[Grace Van Hollebeke @GraceLMcBride]

@NWischoff I get rouge. Depends how much you really want to connect and if you can provide value back to them

@agazdecki You just helped us at @letslucia_ solve a copy issue we've been thinking about for like 3 weeks...

Problem problem problem

[Andrew Gazdecki @agazdecki]

Customers do not care about how awesome your startups features are, they just care about how you will solve their painful problem.

[Grace Van Hollebeke @GraceLMcBride]

@agazdecki & also not coming back from a vacation and telling everyone about your idea for a new massive pivot or rebrand.
