@united what the heck? UAL canceled direct flights SFO-CMH we bought—right around the total solar eclipse April 8. Other airlines are adding direct flights and UA cancels…seriously?! - a frustrated million miler customer.

@sarahfrier New term: "ZoomScaping" - Deliberately arranging the visual backdrop of your home office/desk for video calls. Even if the out of view stuff is a mess.

Thoughtful post from @ibscribe . "GTM Fit is a game changer" for SaaS repeatability. And, "Every company is a series of big/small loops". Very true.

🧵wrote a post outlining the playbook for a consumerized enterprise product with horizontal SaaS distribution, and it had a bunch of underlying assumptions, known unknowns, and implicit trends that I’m still mulling over runthebusiness.substack.com/p/consumerizin…

Good list of sources from @blakethorne on product-led growth. Plus finding Go-to-market Fit.

Want an entire book? Check out @BobTinker and @taeheanahm's "Survival to Thrival" More than just self-serve covered in here. But their entire premise of GTM-fit is really valuable & something more companies, self-serve or not, should think about. amazon.com/Survival-Thriv…

Thank you Tae Hea. We went thru 08 together. Its the real world battlescars (vs pithy platitudes) that we needed then and now.
Tae Hea Nahm@taeheanahm
My Survival to Thrival co-author @BobTinker, was on a @Work_Bench webinar with @jerseejess talking about how he launched MobileIron at the height of the 08 financial crisis and went on to grow its revenue to over $150M. It's worth a watch! youtube.com/watch?v=hupOQ3…

Thank you April! We are all in this together. Honored that CoBC meant something to you. Credit also goes to the 10+ startup leaders who also contributed their stories of success, failure--and mostly importantly: *UN-learning*. #changeorbechanged amzn.to/2OiJZ8l

Thank you @dcunni for the kind words about "Letter to myself as a 1st time CEO". Entreprenurs are in it together. Surprising Epilogue to the talk: it turned into two books
