The easiest job in tech is Head of Growth at a consumer company with PMF.

I did it at Rappi and thought I was a genius.

Everything you try works.
Tweak onboarding → conversion jumps.
Unlock referrals → growth explodes.
Turn on paid → infinite scale.

And if something fails… it was an “experiment.”

But that’s a fallacy. It’s like losing weight on GLP-1 and thinking you mastered discipline.

Because when you become a founder, you realize the only hard growth problem is building a product people actually want.

I’m a growth person, but I have infinitely more admiration for 0→1 product people than 1→100 growth people.

I recently heard someone say:

"The amount of good things in your life depends on your ability to notice them."

I can't see it any other way now.

Brand decay is real. Taste gets outvoted and treated as risk instead of a competitive edge

Prioritization is a superpower. Most startups fail from doing too much, not too little.

[Build Canada @buildcanada]

For decades, an entrenched oligopoly has kept Canadian wireless prices among the highest in the world. In 2023, a 10GB plan costs an average of $45.43 for Canadians but only $19.08 for those in the UK.

The Big Three control 80-90% of the market, facing little pressure to lower prices. As such, their revenues are 2-3x higher than peer countries.

The problem is clear: prices are high, competition is weak, and consumers and small businesses are paying the price.

To the government's credit, they've tried in the past to introduce more competition. But there's a clear pattern: new regulation spurs a brief increase in competition, new entrants are eventually sold to or suffocated by incumbents, after competition fades, prices rise.

We need drastic changes to fix the problem – for good:

1. Ensure a pure-play wireless competitor is always operating – they operate differently than traditional telecom and offer welcome competition

2. Update CRTC mandate to prioritize all types of competition – including letting anyone operate pure play and MVNOs

3. Ensure CRTC definitively resolves disputes within 90 days – do not let the Big Three drag cases out

4. Eliminate all foreign ownership restrictions – this lets companies get the capital needed to get started

5. Set-up a formal testing regime for new technologies – sandbox adequate spectrum for new competitors to test

6. Mandatory garden leave – prohibit regulators and private companies from working for the other side for at least 2 years.

7. If this still does not work to bring prices down sustainably, then force telecom companies to separate infrastructure (towers) from services, to let all retail service providers compete on equal footing for infra access.

With these changes, we can bring down Canada's astronomical prices down – for good.

Yearly reminder to check w/ your telco provider for better rates/plans.

I went from $75/mo for 20GB of data to $40/mo for 100GB of data (data also now works in the US).
