Don’t Crush It Alone (The Podcast)
Today I released Season 2 of the podcast called, “The Founders Handbook”.
On the show today I brought on Jaap Vergote to chat about why you should sell it before you make it. It’s all about the idea of validating your idea by talking to people before you pour in money, time and resources into building a product.
This isn’t the last time we’ll hear from Jaap, he’ll be back next week with another lesson for founders.
At its core, what is remote work? What does it mean to work from home?
I shared this last letter but I wanted to share it again. It’s really important to me to educate folks on remote work and ensuring the health of the team stays intact even though teams are not physically close. Read the post to understand what remote work or working from home really means.
If you found it helpful share it with friends, co-workers, and strangers.
