The future of building startups:

- MVP speed (1x per month)
- AI-accelerated
- Superniche is the new niche
- Community 1st, software 2nd
- No-code 1st, some code 2nd
- 10x more automated
- Global teams, localized products
- 95% dominated by solopreneurs and microentrepreneurs (teams less than 12)
- Pop-up digital experiences (apps that only work on certain times)
- Needs the marketing holy-trinity to hit escape velocity: 1. product/market fit, 2. content/market fit and 3. community/market fit
- Team is half robots 🤖, half humans 👨‍🦰 (cc @youneedarobot)
- Accelerated by "boring marketing" (cc @boringmarketer)
- Multiple revenue streams
- Design matters. The bar is high
- Partnered w/ creators (creators are the distribution)
- Feels like a game (levels, status, badges, in-app currency, challenges, collectibles/items)
- Purpose-driven moonshots: societal impact matters
- Productized agencies to generate cashflow (ex design agency @DispatchDesign)
- Product studios become the norm
- 99% of MVPs won't need VC

Seismic shifts — social, cultural, and political — are reshaping our society. As a startup founder, are you building products that speak to the this burgeoning consumer class? #ageofsingledom

@brianbreslin (2/2) My wealth & happiness are tied to my knowledge & brain/physical health not a mortgage I pay a bank servicer for the next 30 yrs. I now enjoy my cappuccinos everyday, anytime I want one & saved $1,500 yr to use/invest as I see fit.

[Gordon Saint Aurbyn @SaintAurbyn]

@brianbreslin (1/2) I used to drink $5 cappuccinos everyday—sometimes 2 a day (about 2k yr)! Bought my own espresso machine 3 yrs ago ($600), Freshly roasted beans & organic milk ($35 month) essentially means this daily pleasure cost about $500yr/$9.62 wk (w/espresso machine annual breakdown).

I have a feeling that in the next 5-10 years I will look back and consider this sit down with @volvoshine as one of the most pivotal meetings I’ve ever had.

The power of social IRL connections can truly change lives. Salute @volvoshine
