I’ve known and worked with @reidhoffman for a long. This post highlights the open and honest person I know. Two traits that are sorely lacking in the world - especially at this moment in politics. The world needs more people like Reid. @reidhoffman/truth-and-politics-1a532bc6c2b1" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">medium.com/@reidhoffman/t…

I have been (metaphorically) saying for years that @reidhoffman has written the book on scaling companies. It’s now literally true. A must read for all entrepreneurs. Given the press around this book Reid’s next book should be Blitzscaling PR. amazon.com/Blitzscaling-L…

@ben_mathes @nikillinit The answer does depend, but for eBay Motors I focused more on initial supply than initial demand.

I've noticed that companies building a healthcare marketplace try to attract the supply first since they the demand for specific brands is high + supply is concentrated in a few players
IMO this is the wrong approach and not how other successful marketplaces have been built
