I kept reading for 3 minutes and still couldn't get a grasp on what kind of "agency" he was talking about. Real estate agency? Literary agency? Travel agency? Can anyone who finished reading tell me?
- unishark 6y agoYes I didn't get this either. My guess is he meant software contracting or something related, making software to order rather than making their own products. And presumably he could've switched to a SaaS business model without leaping into a completely different market. Instead he should have stuck with some B2B area he was already working in and knew well. That was the high-risk part in my opinion.

- cambalache 6y agoThis is just a techbro(well, more like middle aged) story, full of all the usual ingredients:Narcissism, overestimation of their impact on society, virtue-signaling, extrapolating personal experiences to the whole society. Give me better a story about a Turkish butcher(including he calling names to the mom of his competition) any day of the week.
- enonevets 6y agoMetalab is a software/design development agency. 37Signals (now Basecamp) started as the same kind of agency.
