Most auth ors write from a place of passion and a desire to share. Where was he when I was 18 and just starting out!?

I’d like to offer you two “life hacks&# that I implemented in 2009 and one that I’m test driving in 2010. They taught us to write down questions when they came up and batch them together in point sheets. That’s my 2010 hack. If you get 3 things done every day it adds up to a lot more within the month.

In writing anything positive about any of the companies I’m not suggesting that it means that I prefer them to any of their competitors. Also, some of the deals I write about I have actually seen as part of their fund raising process. SendGrid helps improve delivery. LendingClub. 24.5mm in Series C. Enter Xobni.

Having a methodology instead of just going on random sales visits helped force a bit of rigor and honesty amongst team members about how well or not we thought we were doing. Take for example the years 2010-2012 where every brand out there seemed to be buying Facebook “Likes.” It’s just human nature.

People can help you if you help them. Become a compelling story yourself. You can network to give and get referrals for other businesses.
