The biggest expense in business is lost sales. If you aren’t currently investing in a way to mitigate that, you’re still in amateur mode.

So you want to be an Angel investor…

Proposal:

🦄 Unicorn = company with a valuation over $1 billion

🐴 Donkey = company that makes over $1 million per year with 1 employee

Donkeys > Unicorns

I’m still blown away that there are two multi billion dollar public companies just because American’s don’t know how to cook vegetables. There are 400M vegetarian Indians, none feels the need to stuff up soy with questionable ingredients to make it look like meat.

Yet another reason to turn off your zoom video.

Teams that turn it off have more evenly balanced turn taking and synchronized verbal cues--which increases their collective intelligence.

I know global warming, COVID vaccines, etc are super important, but really I think we should drop everything and focus all our energy on ridding the world of the scourge that is daylight savings time.

Who’s with me?

@ResistImpeach45 We are sad and sorry to hear about your loss.

So many mid-size companies looking to move from @wordpressdotcom to @webflow. If you are good on Wordpress then it’s time to pick up some of the migration work (assuming you’ve Webflow experience)

I just had an incredible encounter. Our doorbell rang, so I opened the window to look below to the front stoop.
When I saw a man delivering food, I called out to him, letting him know it must be for our neighbors downstairs. This, so far, is normal.

Tony was an intern at @Square when we met & worked together.

On his last day, before leaving and ultimately starting Door Dash, I tried to get him to stay with a passionate speech about his career opportunity.

Good call ignoring the advice, @t_xu. Good call.

@dipalua_ Good relationships are built on likability, great relationships are built on trust.

"I saw your name on 'Trace Cohen' investor list and I thought you might be interested in what are doing at..."

Founders don't be lazy and ruin this for everyone by spamming my list... I will call you out. Mass emails to investors are obvious and dont work.

Sequoia invested $100 million in Zoom at a $1 billion valuation 3.5 years ago.

Zoom is now worth more than $90 billion.

That’s a 90x return in less than four years on a $100 million check (assuming they hold the whole position and no dilution, etc.)

I was reminded today of Andrew Mason's resignation letter from Groupon in 2013. So good.

"After four and a half intense and wonderful years as CEO of Groupon, I've decided that I'd like to spend more time with my family. Just kidding - I was fired today.."

This is the scariest blog post I’ve read in a long time and convinced me to no longer share identifiable pictures of my kids or family https://t.co/hLl5sCugoN
