  1. Reading: "Presenting to Win." Super helpful as I tweak my fbFund preso for next week "Why Startups Fail"
  2. Execution can't make up for a product or service that nobody needs. #startups
  3. Starting personal project to study 100s of deadpool startups to understand why they failed. Any former founders want to connect?
  4. After first IPO in 2000, I was tempted to check the price every time I sat at my PC. This time live quotes in my pocket, stop!
  5. A startup should achieve short-term relevancy with target users for best chance of realizing their long-term big vision.
  6. "Confront the brutal facts (via Good to Great)." If your product isn't resonating with users, more sales channels won't solve the problem.
  7. Just upgraded to eFax Plus. Could have gotten free version but saw value in paying $400+ over next 24 months. Freemonomics at work!
  8. @matjohnson thanks!
  9. Profitable, scalable customer acquisition requires fine tuning the overall economics of your startup.
  10. Anyone else feel like @TechCrunch is way too SF/Silicon Valley focused? Seems important east coast startup news often goes uncovered.
  11. Thanks all who congratulated me on IPO. Former teammates have done a great job taking things to the next level. I'm very grateful.
  12. @bhanusharma Thanks, exciting day!
  13. $LOGM up over 25% so far today (IPO today). Now for 180 days of nail biting - very hopeful since tracking first month of $OPEN IPO.
  14. @charliepark It's LOGM. I'm hearing it doesn't start trading until 10:40 EST.
  15. Damn, was thinking Nasdaq opens at 9am EST, but it's 9:30. Still waiting on pins and needles for IPO.
  16. @jessecrockett Not sure what you mean by angel work? If angel investing - yes, but only one angel investment in last 12 months.
  17. It's a long fun road from the first customer to an IPO. Requires smart planning/execution, great team, hard work and a lot of luck.
  18. Awesome afternoon talking surveys with @rashmi. Looking forward to collaborating to take 12in6 cust dev surveys to next level.
  19. @leonardspeiser Really interested in seeing how two tweets and a lie progresses. I didn't realize it was posting tweets for every click.
  20. Guess which one of my claims is a lie! http://www.twables.com/twot...
