Huge news here at GTMfund. We’re excited to share that we’ve brought on a new Partner: @JasonDemant !
It’s a big moment for @gtmfund . Most importantly, it’s a big moment for our founders and LPs, as Jason is going to bring so much value to multiple areas of the firm.
After deploying Fund II, we knew the team would grow. We weren’t strapped for capacity, which allowed us to be opportunistic on the new team member joining the mission. We could be patient and wait for the right person.
Over the past year, we’ve had a ton of inbound - Partners and Principals from well-known firms, institutional LPs, and world-class operators.
It’s also been incredibly meaningful to see that momentum. The firm, the media company (GTMnow), and the GTMfund brand have grown a lot since we started the firm 5 years ago.
Jason had invested in 100+ emerging manager funds over his 6 years at Foundation, and GTMfund was at the top of his list of firms he would join if the opportunity arised.
We spent months talking about what a partnership could look like. His vision for the future of GTMfund, our vision, and how those intersected. It was a perfect fit.
We couldn’t be more excited to have him onboard!
There’s a bonus episode on The GTMnow Podcast that just went live today if you’re interested in more details on the decision from me, Paul Irving, and the team, along with hearing from Jason directly.
@STLChrisH@SahilBloom@alexisohanian The biggest winner of these management decisions? The customer.
No joke, when your people come to my house I ask them all if they’re in a cult bc of how much they sing the praises of the Hoffman name, ALL while providing top notch customer service.
In the age of AI, I'm still having to change the font of newly inserted page numbers in Microsoft Word to match the font of the remainder of the document. Pls Fix. @Office@Microsoft
@HarryStebbings Same advice for GPs…
Amazing that there are GPs who can get frustrated with a lack of updates from their founders, but not take their own advice with LP updates
It sent alarm bells through my head:
✂️ If they cut corners here, where else are they cutting them?
💆 Does that same lack of rigor show up in customer service?
🤨 Can you trust them to deliver on their promises?
There's now a new layer of scrutiny on the whole relationship.
@SMB_Attorney@STLChrisH I send my 7 year old to the door to tell them we aren’t interested. Works like a charm.
I hope nobody takes this advice. I don’t need more people knocking on my door offering me something I don’t need.
