In 2005 I paid my first full time employee (customer support) $1,400/month and 7% of my startup vesting over four years. He did a great job but quit after six months to go to grad school. Seven years later I mailed him a check for $1.3 million. I’m still so proud of this.

@lewis_sheats @NCStatePoole So what will you do with all your free time ?!?

[Aaron Houghton @aaronwhoughton]

I closed revenue from my top five dream partnerships for my #startup, and I did it in just four weeks. All billion dollar companies.

Instead of doing the legwork to try to convince these companies to partner, I just targeted their customers through ads. Here’s how.

A thread 🧵

[Kelly Rowell @KellyRowell]

@averyj I have some ideas about how founders could invest in other founders...

[Kelly Rowell @KellyRowell]

@citylifematt @CalebBushner @DavidSpinks I'd say Experience. Starts with mktg, then engagement/events, to sales/events and success/events.

[David Spinks @DavidSpinks]

Observation: Community builders tend to be really strong generalists.

Which is part of why we get asked to do some many different things.

We’re good at it.

[Kelly Rowell @KellyRowell]

I am onboard. Slight adjustment, off-sites are the new on-sites. There is power in a room full of innovators, innovating.

[David Spinks @DavidSpinks]

The future of startups will be:
- fully remote
- no vesting cliffs
- choose your hours
- equal parental leave
- transparent compensation
- co-owned by the community
- diverse, equitable, and inclusive
- no 90-day exercise requirements on stock
